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 he would find his voice in verse and chorus
Making wishes on his broken stereo
Can't shake the 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 boy's 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
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
Took a fated trip across the ocean
And little did he know he would find his voice in verse and chorus
Making wishes on his broken stereo
Hear it all play out in distant echoes
Cruise controller
Satellite trajectory
Guide us into reverie and come down
To voice a generation
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
Hear it all play out in distant echoes
Cruise controller
Satellite trajectory
Guide us into reverie and come down
To voice a generation
Cruise controller
Satellite trajectory
Guide us into reverie and come down
To voice a generation

clearly about alex himself. When Alex was little (back in '95) he moved to america (took a fated trip across the ocean)
(Late 2005 The boy's 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) about all time low, his friends are jack, rian and zack, they take their chances doing all this music stuff, give them six more years and you're here, with all time low as they are today.
(You can't shake the noise from their bones Hear it all play out in distant echoes) they wont give up on the band, you can't get that out of them.
I love this song because it's personal to the band and it's like their story unlike songs about sex and love. love itttt
