Oh Soldier

Weirdness follows me wherever I go
Weirdness seems to know me even better than I seem to know myself
I’m someone else

Looking to the clock beside my bed
Am I really keeping time or is it only keeping me instead?
Go back to bed

Woah, woah, woah, you got time to grow

Oh Soldier, take your time
No one said the words all have to rhyme
And if they do it’s fine
And even if they don’t
No one needs to know
Woah, woah, Soldier, you gotta let things go

An hour hand moves faster with a scotch
Even when you’re in it, moving faster every minute if you watch
And I drink a lot

But drinking only wakes you up at 10
Spend the day regretting but I’m betting that you’ll do it all again
Next weekend

Woah, woah, woah, you got time to grow

Oh Soldier, take your time
No one said the words all have to rhyme
And if they do it’s fine
And even if they don’t
No one needs to know
Woah, woah, Soldier, you gotta let things go

Don’t look down the barrel with an arrow and a bow
Dressed down in apparel with camouflage from head to toe
With everything so sterile, in a heavy monotone
Oh Soldier, you gotta let things go

Oh Soldier, take your time
No one said the words all have to rhyme
And if they do it’s fine
And even if they don’t
No one needs to know
Woah, woah, Soldier, you gotta let things go
