So Long, Soldier

Back in ‘95

a little boy from just outside of London

took a fated trip across the ocean..

And little did he know

that he would find

is voice in verse and chorus,

Making wishes on his broken stereo.

Can’t shake the noise from his bones.

Hear it all play out in distant echoes.

So long soldier, cruise controller.

Satellite trajectory guide us into reverie

and come down to voice a generation.

Late 2005,

the boy's got plans as crazy as his friends

They take their chances driving west alone

Give 'em six more years

And see what time will do

for hopeless dreamers

Singing wishes to their broken stereo.

You can’t shake the noise from his bones.

Hear it all play out in distant echoes.

So long soldier, cruise controller.

Satellite trajectory guide us into reverie

and come down to voice a generation.

So long soldier, cruise controller.

Satellite trajectory guide us into reverie

and come down to voice a generation.
