The gun is pointed at his sister
She's laughing cause the thing is just a toy
He makes the sound of flying bullets
He's twelve years old and just a boy
But he is waiting for the moment
That he will be joining them
There's a twinkle in his eyes
He is prepared he is twelve years old
But he's a man
His mother's looking from a distance
She did all she could have ever done
One day a truck will be driving through her village
And it will take away her son
And he is waiting for that moment
She knows he will be joining them
The army of the innocent still growing
All about his age
Children but determined as men
The warscene is chaos
And covered in blood
The fight only just begun
Our 12 years old soldier
Is wetting his pants
While aiming and killing a man
He moves like a ghost no longer aware
Is he dreaming or is he awake
His pupils wide open
He's slobbering pieces of pills
They have forced him to take
Crawling through the fields of death
All ennemies stronger than him
The boy starts to shiver
He's shouting and firing
There's no way he can win
The sergeant who had to
Take care of him died
Now he's out there on his own
He cries for his mother
He cries for his sister
He cries cause he wants to go home
It's too late (it's too late)
Just too late
The gun is carried by his sister
Not laughing now but staring at a grave
She listens as they speak their words of sorrow
Her brother was too young
But yet so brave
And now he has his final moment
She puts his toygun in the ground
Her mother is desperate and crying
Yeah she's crying
The body of her son was never found
