[Verse 1]
Every time you think about it
It tears you up inside
You curse the day your mother
Told you, your father died
Now you're always searching
You're searching for the reason why I've gone
But I will always be here
By your side, through the darkest (night)

[Chorus]
Here I'll stand on the firing line
Here I'll walk through the field where I died
I will fight and let the voice ring true
I am the ghost
Standing next to you

[Verse 2]
Every night you go to sleep
You pray the Lord my soul to keep
You don't know I've not gone away
You see I watch over fighting men
So they can have peace again
And maybe someday you will all be free and

[Chorus]
Here I'll stand on the firing line
Here I'll walk through the field where I died
I will fight and let the voice ring true
I am the ghost
Standing next to you
[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
You speak to me
And I feel your pride
Assuring me I'll never die
I write: "Mother
He's here with me
He's in our minds
He's in our souls
Of sacrifice his story's told
He holds the flame of freedom for all to see"

[Chorus]
Here we stand on the firing line
Here I'll walk in the field where I fight
I, I will fight or die for liberty
With the ghost standing next to me

[Outro – Fading]
Don't tread on me, live free or die
Don't tread on me, live free or die
To our fallen brothers!
(Don't tread on me)
You died to keep us free!
(Live free or die)
To our fallen brothers!
(Don't tread on me, live free or die)
Who gave us liberty!!!
(Don't tread on me, live free or die)
