(Verse 1)
You were only thirteen, when you gave your life to war
You were only a child, when danger barged at your door
When you burned were sixteen
And your memory thrives
(Pre-chorus)
You didn't hold back, you fought great like bear
And you won the battle!
And you didn't hold back
You soared like an eagle!
(Chorus)
You were strong, you were brave and you mattered.
And you fought and you won, but you lost yourself in the end!
You were strong, you were brave and you mattered
To the very end!
Yeah, you mattered.
(Verse2)
You were only a babe, when you took down your first kill
You still cared for your T.V. dramas
But you had your own thrills
(Pre-chorus)
And you didn't hold back
You fought like a great bear
And you didn't hold back
You soar just like an eagle!
(Chorus)
You were brave, you were strong and you mattered!
And you fought and won, but you lost yourself in the end
You were brave, you were strong and you mattered
To the very, to the very end…
You fought own demons
(Bridge)
You came out of the fire
And caged the rat
Yeah, you were the rat…
(Chorus)
You were strong…
You were brave.
And you mattered, yes you mattered!
You were strong, you were brave and you mattered!
You had fought, you had died, and you were a warrior
You were brave you were strong and you mattered!
In the very end, in the end
You mattered.
You mattered…
