So Long Soldier Lyrics

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 his voice in verse and chorus
Making wishes on his broken stereo

You can't shake the noise from his bones
Hear it all played out in distant echos

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
See what time will do for hopeless dreamers
Singing wishes to their broken stereo

You can't shake the noise from their bones
Hear it all played 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
