My lyric actually made sense in the context of the song (at least it did to me), so it took a while until I learned the truth. In an Amy Grant song, I was convinced she said "But your life can't fall asunder, 'cuz you just can't lay down and die." However, the line actually goes "But you're like a fallen soldier..."
