Soldier

How original to wanna start a fight with me

Understand I'm a dangerous man, well I must be

Now you know what I feel

And being safe from ourselves

Only makes us strangers to the danger that's around us

How we rule bound now when we're so free

Hands and ties by use by the slippery tiles and parking fees

Seems to be it's the nature of the beast

Experienced don't come to one until humbled in defeat

Now you know what I'm feeling in the nanny state

Lesson one, the rule of thumb, never play it safe

When I'm a grown man I only hope I don't forget

Exactly how I feel right now in this moment

Or does simple forget that as you get old, who knows

What will be like with nice things and sensible clothes

So why you sure that you're angry at me?

Martial law by court or tort, you felt the right and no right to be

Ain't no way to be that you don't get beat

You leave me and tease me to reach these extremes

So now you know what I feel

And trying to go west in the suburbs

You're as west as you can get

When I'm a grown man I only hope I don't forget

Exactly how I feel right now in this moment

Or does simple forget that as you get old, who knows

What will be like with nice things and sensible clothes

The horizon's no wider than outside

It's the end of the century, no, I'm lying

It's hardly for an answer but a question to be right

Instead of entertainment we could speak our minds

We could say something true

But I feel better knowing you're just like me

And I bring your name up in conversation accidentally

Now you know what I feel

Wait and see, I guess

Maybe it's the reason you settle in the end

When I'm a grown man I only hope I don't forget

Exactly how I feel right now in this moment

Look at me beside you, not at that tiny screen

Don't try to write the law that'll overwrite me

When I'm a grown man I only hope I don't forget

Exactly how I feel right now in this moment
