a Leatherneck is a Marine. The Marines are a Branch of the Navy(Talking U.S. here)
(Marched from a burning ship into a rained out parade, With a bottle and a bible)
so we're bailing from a burning ship, Both Religion, and Booze, play a huge role in a military lifestyle, Stress relief and whatnot.(lil' ironic on that one)
(We trade distinction and praise, For the tedious claim that we were wed in the trenches, While college boys pine for loveless exchange)
We've traded our good name, to say that we were (Permenantly joined?) during battle. while college kids look for one night stands that mean nothing
Next paragraph
"We carry..." (The mental Anguish of having to kill people)
"We've Spilt blood..."[killed] (to be remembered but we wont be, they dont want to remember us, and any idea of it has crashed)
(immediatly after our return EVERYTHING has changed, and now we are the bad guys, as if we had never existed in our own home town (The locals will bury my wandering eyes[Dont even look, we are the enemy], At the docks of the potters field[we're coming from a ship i figure thats the first place we're gunna come to])
(Where the rifles of ranking men, Are equipped with 21 silencers) The honorable homecoming we wanted, has been replaced with a disgraceful, hidden from our families, execution.
(At 'em boys, give 'er the gun, I'm the richest man in town) If memory serves, this is combining IAWF's main character chasing his wife(who doesnt know him because he, at the point, doesnt exist) with the richest man in town(the hooker shop owner i believe). the richest man telling her to kill him.(This is a rough one)
(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)
Not so sure, it seems he is Demeaning the angel(The boredom) sent to help him even though it saved his life[resurrected my soul](still talking IAWL) he crashes his car in the movie, but im not so sure about that line, he was shitcanned(drunk) when he crashed it.
(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)
Unfortunately thats about all i got... It seems he takes back his plan to kill himself, and the kiss from this girl is a promise, hopefully, it will be accepted by the family
I think i did alright, but im pretty sure im missing something.
Good call on the It's A Wonderful Life Reference
please excuse my lack of a solid template. lol its a bit haphazard.
The Crash the car line, When he gets out of the car, he see's someone he recognizes(who doesnt recognize him) and he continues to... His house i believe, which was abandoned. damn i need to watch that movie over again.

does the 21 silencers refer to the 21 gun salute? "a potter's field is a place for the burial of unknown or indigent people"(wikipedia def.). 'covetous kiss' i don't think has anything to do with a girl. i'm not sure if the song has a meaning but it seems to definitely have a story or is based on something. i mean leatherneck being a marine fits in prefectly and the reference to college boys is funny. the song is great and i love the vocals but i still can't fully understand it haaaha
