This is about the differences a soldier faces between life at home and life fighting, both in what is expected of him and in what he finds acceptable.

  [English & glossolalia]

I fought on the planes of distant continents
Fought for the fall-out of incompetence
Fought for our piece of mind and self-defence
Fought with those people, but "e tal in e
No sen"

Sit in the shade of a tree
Looking out to sea
It's someone I've to be
But it's not me
...and country...
You know me
...and country...

News of disturbances away from here
Duty has called me to slide on the sphere
Wait for me; dream of sunlit sand somewhere
Soft cooling breezes pulling through your hair

Perfect. With you. I'll sit me down and I'll
Reach for the warmest thoughts you offer me
I must leave you lonely now
But while I'm gone, but while I'm gone...

The Appleton Layer will keep us together

Everything repeats
And everything reoccurs
Every day's the same
I run down
[x2]

I run down on the wind
I run down on the wind
I run down on the wind
As every helping hand feeds the flame

Run for the waves
Rolling
Run to the ocean
Catch for the sense of your selfishness
Gone with you to peacefulness
[x2]

"Look in it al a they al a te na
Zo to pre sin
Shot e lan e sit
Shot e lan e sit
Calling us en it way"

"Crushing it over it
Over un da
So do tre fe
Missing out all is
Mi si ka tal is
Jo je a pro thin dal"

Run for the waves
Rolling
Run to the ocean
Catch for the sense of your selfishness
Gone with you to peacefulness
[x2]
