Running with bulls, working my miracles
Holding my world together with a boot string
Living the dream, Benzos and gasoline
Coffee and blue light screens 'til the morning
If I tell you this is drowning, you'd tell me I'm walking on water
I could bring fire from the mountain, you'd tell me it feels a little colder
I don't wanna
Choose between being a salesman or a soldier
Just let me look a little older, let me step a little bolder
Choose between being a butcher or a pauper
Honey, I'm taking no orders, I'm gonna be nobody's soldier
Sick to my skin, watching the news again
Whatever you choose, you lose out in the long run
The paint on the walls come down like a waterfall
The goal I was aiming for was the wrong one
If I say that this is drowning, you'd tell me I'm walking on water
I could bring fire from the mountain, you'd tell me it feels a little colder
I don't wanna
Choose between being a salesman or a soldier
Just let me look a little older, let me step a little bolder
Choose between being a butcher or a pauper
Honey, I'm taking no orders, I'm gonna be nobody's soldier
(Nobody's soldier) Mmm, being a butcher
(Nobody's soldier) or a pauper, I'm
(Nobody's soldier) I'm gonna be nobody's soldier
I don't wanna choose between being a salesman or a soldier
Just let me look a little older, let me step a little bolder
Choose between being a butcher or a pauper
Honey, I'm taking no orders, gonna be nobody's soldier
Holding my world together with a boot string
Living the dream, Benzos and gasoline
Coffee and blue light screens 'til the morning
If I tell you this is drowning, you'd tell me I'm walking on water
I could bring fire from the mountain, you'd tell me it feels a little colder

I dig it. Cool music video too. 
Really thought this was the cult until I looked
I only knew him from his first album, which I really like, epecially for his voice. I am missing that timbre in this song though. Nice and poppy, but also fairly generic to me. Let's start this with "pretty good" and see if it grows on me.

well, this is keeping me awake at 3AM
