We watch the news, we read the headlines, we listen to music, and we see movies about our soldiers at war. Many of us have been touched personally, sending off someone we know or love overseas; too many of us have been to the funerals, sat by a gravestone surrounded by a white sea of stones. Unless we have been soldiers, we don’t know what it’s like, we can only imagine it. Nonpoint’s “Frontlines” does its best to take on the perspective of a soldier, to get inside his head, to feel the fear, the courage, the unwavering faith that he has to carry with him every step of the way, each time he crawls on his belly or takes cover on the frontline, each time he writes another letter home and kisses that frayed picture of his family, each time he watches someone else fall.Never heard of this before? Get up to speed here. It’s a song that shows us any soldier that willing signs up to defend our freedom, fight for us, and fight for what’s right deserves the title of hero. The ordinary becomes the extraordinary simply by making that pledge to join in a war that may not end and defend us to the end.
