Leatherneck

歌詞

Marched from a burning ship into a rained out parade With a bottle and a Bible the dregs are armed to the teeth We traded distinction and praise for the tedious claim That we were wed in the trenches While college boys pine for loveless exchange Now we carry fragments from detonated eyes Embedded under our bones We've spilled blood for the sake of fitting skin to the frame But our moneys is no good here And our memorial has veered off the road The locals will bury my wandering eyes At the docks of the potters field Where the rifles of ranking men Are equipped with 21 silencers At 'em boys, give her the gun At 'em boys, give her the gun I'm the richest man in town I'm the richest man in town Faith, stand down give your wings To the boredom that resurrected my soul Crash the car if the motor won't turn over Glory be to God Jumped from the disloyal waves back up to the bridge Renounced the warmth of the turbulent grave I found blood on my lips from a covetous kiss And I hope that my home tips its glass to it
