Fatigues

I used to walk the highway tape
Tried to outrun me into cemetery life
Now I watch the hawks get heavy
In the park just picking pigeons on the wire
Their best two men to see them,
I’ve met every local hero
Yeah, I know their life
Their careers
Their girlfriends
I only liked fear
I was freer than them,
Yeah, that’s what I did
What did you do?
I went for work, I went fun time building line
So destructive waste was watching rivers ride
Yell for my life
I scream for my supper
I yelled at the moon
I yelled for my mother
Yeah, that’s what I did
What did you do?
You’ve got to get soldier swagger
Cause if not, he doesn’t have a thing at all
I’m a soldier through misfortune
You can tell just by the ocean in my heart
If creation gives you beauty
Then it also gives you cruelty
And that’s no lie
Here’s the lab partner jewelry
And its shine will always fool me
It’s a drive
