So Long Soldier (feat. Anthony Raneri)

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

Can't shake that noise from his bones

Hear it all play out in distant echoes

So long soldier

Cruise controller

Satellite trajectory

Guide us into reverie

And come down

To voice a generation

Late 2005

The boys got plans

As crazy as his friends

They take their chances

Driving west alone

Give em' six more years

And 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 play out

In Distant Echoes
