Just another man who
works hard in his boots
I go to church and I
know Jesus more than most
I've felt heartache,
hunger and a lot of pain
I carry my gun,
sleep in the sand and cry when my buddies fall
So that my family
can sleep sound tonight
Chorus
What do you do when
the music has no melody
What do you do when
the songs have lost their soul
You listen to them
and sometimes sing along
But these songs I
know so well mean so little to me
I used to sing and
smile and cry to their heartfelt melody
So what do you do
when you don't feel the music anymore?
I go back home to
mountains I've missed so long
To hugs and kisses
from loved ones I ain't seen it's been too long
I smile and tell
them that I'm alright
I tell of my good
times and cool things I've seen
I listen to stories of the things that haven't
changed
They don't know the
things I've done or terror that I have seen
I keep it locked
away with feelings that used to be
Chorus
What do you do when
the music has no melody
What do you do when
the songs have lost their soul
You listen to them
and sometimes sing along
But these songs I
know so well mean so little to me
I used to sing and
smile and cry to their heartfelt melody
So what do you do
when you don't feel the music anymore?
I'm far away now
with my family dressed in green
A bond unbroken and
love unseen
A song comes on the
radio it makes me think of home
And I feel nothing
It's the dead part of me
I run and fight
regardless of the pain
I read letters, my
girl is gone, my uncle died, my mamma's sick
But I am far away
and I can't do anything
I tuck my letter far
away along with the pain
I have a job to do
and I don’t feel anymore
Chorus
What do you do when
the music has no melody
What do you do when
the songs have lost their soul
You listen to them
and sometimes sing along
But these songs I
know so well mean so little to me
I used to sing and
smile and cry to their heartfelt melody
So what do you do
when you don't feel the music anymore?
My sacrifice is more
than a bullet and a gun
It is the feeling I
once felt before I'd gone
I know my heart
still beats deep withhin my chest
But no matter how
much I try I don't feel anymore
I just push on, do
my job and keep you safe regardless of what goes on
So what do I do when
I don't feel the music anymore?
