Citizen Soldier Page #10

Synopsis: CITIZEN SOLDIER is a dramatic feature film, told from the point of view of a group of Soldiers in the Oklahoma Army National Guard's 45th Infantry Brigade Combat Team, known since World War II as the "Thunderbirds." Set in one of the most dangerous parts of Afghanistan at the height of the surge, it is a heart-pounding, heartfelt grunts' eye-view of the war. A modern day Band of Brothers, Citizen Soldier tells the true story of a group of Soldiers and their life-changing tour of duty in Afghanistan, offering an excruciatingly personal look into modern warfare, brotherhood, and patriotism. Using real footage from multiple cameras, including helmet cams, these Citizen Soldiers give the audience an intimate view into the chaos and horrors of combat and, in the process, display their bravery and valor under the most hellish of conditions.

You gotta stand

Upright

Right

You came with

To come

Alive

Yeah

( Shouting, laughing )

( All laughing )

Soldier:

Okay.

Come on!

Hey, hey, he!!-

Hey, what's up?

This is Roche,

on this episode

of MTV Cribs.

As you can see,

we're remodeling right now.

We ain't got much...

got a bunch of grenades.

Got my gun.

Got a machine gun

with f***in' thermals.

Uh, got a nice big

rock wall.

There's a hot tub

down there.

There's a pool down there

with a creak thing.

Cameraman:
Oh, sh*t,

we're recording. Do a dance.

Oh, sh*t.

Hey, work it!

Go ahead.

He's a pissed off

guitar player.

( Strings clatter)

It sounds like sh*t!

( All laughing )

I tend to the dark

Lying cloaked

With insight

To defend this heart

We must cut like knives

So wait for me

On wounded knee

Cut from thee

Oh, so faithfully

And when the light

goes out

It's the torch,

it's the torch

It's the torch

that shines on

And when the light

goes out

It's the torch,

it's the torch

It's the torch

that shines on

Why should I lie

When it's cold

by my side?

And how can I live

When you're supposed

to die?

You keep saying

wait for me

Wait for me,

wait for me

Wait for me

Is it ever my turn?

There's no way for me,

way for me

Way for me, way for me

Do these embers

still burn?

And when the light

goes out

It's the torch,

it's the torch

It's the torch

that shines on

And when the light

goes out

It's the torch,

it's the torch

It's the torch

that shines on

And when the light

goes out

It's the torch,

it's the torch

It's the torch

that shines on

And when the light

goes out

It's the torch,

it's the torch

It's the torch

that shines on

I still see you

through the waves

It's on fire,

it's on fire

No more past

or sunny days

They're on fire

They're on fire

Do you see me

behind closed eyes?

I'm alive, I'm alive

Keep my bedside

cold at night

I'm alive

I'm alive

And when the light

goes out

It's the torch,

it's the torch

It's the torch

that shines on

And when the light

goes out

It's the torch,

it's the torch

It's the torch

that shines on

And when the light

goes out

It's the torch,

it's the torch

It's the torch

that shines on

And when the light

goes out

It's the torch,

it's the torch

It's the torch

that shines on

Wait for me, wait for me

Wait for me,

wait for me

It's the torch

that shines on

Wait for me, wait for me

Wait for me,

wait for me

It's the torch

that shines on.
