Lyrics to Nobody's Soldier
Running with wolves
Working my miracles
Holding my world together with a bootstring
Living the dream
Benzos and gasoline
Coffee and blue light screens till the morning

If I tell you this is drowning
You'll tell me I'm walking on water
I could bring fire from the mountain
You'd tell me it feels a little colder

I don't wanna choose between being a salesman or a soldier
Just let me look a little older
Let me step a little bolder
Choose between being a butcher or a pauper
Honey, I'm taking no ordеrs
Gonna be Nobody's Soldier

Sick to my skin
Watching the nеws again
Whatever you choose, you lose out in the long run
Paint on the walls
Comes down like a waterfall
The goal I was aiming for was the wrong one

If I say that this is drowning
You'll tell me I'm walking on water
I could bring fire from the mountain
You'd tell me it feels a little colder

I don't wanna choose between being a salesman or a soldier
Just let me look a little older
Let me step a little bolder
Choose between being a butcher or a pauper
Honey, I'm taking no orders
Gonna be Nobody's Soldier

Mmm being a butcher (Nobody's Soldier)
Or a pauper (Nobody's Soldier)
I'm gonna (Nobody's Soldier)
I'm gonna be Nobody's soldier

I don't wanna choose between being a salesman or a soldier
Stand here, just let me look a little older
Let me step a little bolder
Choose between being a butcher or a pauper
Honey, I'm taking no orders
Gonna be Nobody's Soldier
