From the 2009 release American Soldier, with singer Geoff Tate and Jason Slater responsible for the lyrics.

Lyrics:

I have so much more to say, my brother.
Can you hear me?
A fool is left to live as the brave ones fall.
I swear if I were able,
I would've done the same for you.
But now you're gone and I wish I were too.

I spend all my time asking questions,
How can I pay you back when
the price you paid was so high, my friend.

If I were King of all I imagine,
I would trade all I am
to have you by my side.
If I were King.

I have too much time today, my brother.
Can you hear me?
I know where I am, but I still feel lost.

Please know that I am grateful
for the years you gave to me.
Everything's changed, but nothing changes
for you.

I won't waste my life asking questions.
I've seen the horror of war and
there's so much more for a man who's been
where I've been.

If I were King of all I imagine,
I would trade what I have
to have you back at my side.

If I were King of all I imagine,
we would both back home
living the rest of our lives.
If I were King.
