One of my best friends in the world wrote this song when he was younger. He was stationed in the middle east with the army when he was just 18 years old. I can’t imagine what it’s like to go to war, let alone at that age, so it kind of blew my mind hearing the tales that he had to tell and everythin...
[Verse 1]
I've let the sun set three hundred sixty-five times
With murder running deep in my heart
If I didn't directly pull the trigger
I sure as hell played my own part
[Pre-Chorus]
You know that it's a snake eat snake world
We slither and serpentine through
We all took a bite and six thousand years later
This apple's getting harder to chew
[Chorus]
'Cause tonight, boys, we're eating like kings
'Cause we've all tasted death too much it seems
Yeah, tonight, boys, we're eating like kings
[Verse 2]
Yeah, it's been a few years and a couple hundred sunsets
Since I fired a rifle in rage
A dozen leather couches and substance filled pouches
Still, I can't fully turn the page
[Pre-Chorus]
But you know that it's a snake eat snake world
We slither and serpentine through
We all took a bite and six thousand years later
This apple's getting harder to chew
[Chorus]
'Cause tonight, boys, we're eating like kings
'Cause we've all tasted death too much it seems
Yeah, tonight, boys, we're eating like kings
