The Souldier

The Record Life The Souldier Lyrics
1.Not The Same

I was standing at the edge of my mind,
trying hard to let some sunlight in.
I tied a kite to the idea of leaving life
and stumbled out to where my brain had never been.
Then I saw her turn around,
and the words fell from my mouth.

You're not the same,
you cut your hair and you changed your name and now
I'm seeing straight on through you.
I'm afraid that you
became everything I hate and now I know I never knew you.
I never knew you.

Blind and breathing hard from trying to climb up to the sky
that lies outside your skin.
But step inside my mind,
I bet my soul you'll find
that you're not the same as you have ever been.
You don't love the live you live,
you've got nothing left to give.

You're not the same,
you cut your hair and you changed your name and now
I'm seeing straight on through you.
I'm afraid that you became everything
I hate and now I know I never knew you.

And you don't know yourself.
You sure know how to sell yourself as someone else.
You're on your own now.

You're not the same,
you're not the face in my picture frame
and now I'm seeing straight on through you.

I'm afraid that you became everything I hate
and now I know I never knew you.
You're not the same,
you cut your hair and you changed your name
and now I'm seeing straight on through you.
I'm afraid that you became everything I hate
and now I know I never knew you.
I never knew you.


2.Got Me Good

It's not workin', but I wish it would.
She don't care about the things she should.
I don't know how she got me,
but I know she got me good.
She's wakin' me up, but I'm wakin' up slowly,
I'm talkin' her up, but I still sound lonely.
If only she could show me
all the sadness that she shakes
when she bends until she breaks,
and just hear me when I say that,
'You, whenever you fall. Wherever you go,
I'll catch you. I'll pick you up and carry you home.'
'You, whenever you fall. Wherever you go,
I'll catch you. I'll pick you up and carry you home.'

She's bright eyed with a brilliant smile.
She's opening up, but it could take awhile.
I'd walk a hundred miles of wrong just to try and make it right.
I wondered at first, but now I know I'm sure
in every line and every single word
of every song she's ever heard.
She's falling in love with the way that I'm taking her through
the day.
Believe me when I say to you,
'Whenever you fall. Wherever you go,
I'll catch you. I'll pick you up and carry you home.'
'Whenever you fall. Wherever you go,
I'll catch you. I'll pick you up and carry you home.'

I'll be the nights that give you sleep,
I'll be the days that lie between,
I'll be the world beneath your feet -
If you let me.
I'll be the only love you'll need -
If you get me.

'Whenever you fall. Wherever you go,
I'll catch you. I'll pick you up and carry you home.'
'Whenever you fall. Wherever you go,
I'll catch you. I'll pick you up and carry you home.'
'Whenever you fall. Wherever you go,
I'll catch you. I'll pick you up and carry you home.'
I'll catch you. I'll pick you up and carry you home.'


3.Step On Your Own

You were burning the day with a bag full of shake in your
senses,
and you elevate.
Wearing the light like a tiger wears stripes,
stepping through the shadows of my window pane.
You're ten kinds of wonderful,
and you're beautiful, and that's great.
But are you sure that you'll remember your name
when the beautiful fades from your face?

Come on, come on, come on and take a step on your own.
I've carried you across a few worlds, I think it's time to be
lettin' go.
Cause love is what comes when you're comfortable with being
alone,
You're starting to show the soul in your bones.

You're tying up time with the big city lights, you're a bright
mind.
Go on, show me it.
Living your life like the writers on strike,
fighting for the right to put some soul in your
Ten kinds of possible, it's not probable, but I'll wait
Just to see if you'll remember your name
when the probable fades from your fate.

Come on, come on, come on and take a step on your own.
I've carried you across a few worlds, I think it's time to be
lettin' go.
Cause love is what comes when you're comfortable with being
alone,
You're starting to show the soul in your bones.

It's only alright if you're living your life like you want to.
It's only alright if you step on your own like you need to.
It's only alright, just give yourself time,
and you'll build yourself a beautiful life.
It's only alright.

But are you sure that you'll remember your name
When the beautiful fades from your face
When the youth that you left's like the skin that you shed
I'll be screaming a series of sounds just to say

Come on, come on, come on and take a step on your own.
I've carried you across a few worlds, I think it's time to be
lettin' go.
Cause love is what comes when you're comfortable with being
alone,
You're starting to show, you're starting to grow.
If everybody's jumpin', well don't you think it's somethin'
inside your souls?
I've carried you across a few worlds, I think it's time to be
lettin' go.


4.Alone In The Atmosphere

I'm finding that it's easy to stall.
As I sink into the city,
I'm waiting for your phone call.
Wishing there was somewhere to go,
and I'm missing you.
Yeah, I'm missing you..

I'm diving in an ocean of all
of the times we swore we'd fall,
But I am alone,
and I am wishing there was someone to call.

I'm wishing there was somebody here.
Alone in the atmosphere.
Someday the sky's going to clear,

I'm nervous, and I'm clearly a mess.
My mind is a wreck,
and my head is like an unmade bed.
But it's as good as it gets when I think of you.
So, I think of you.
Every bit of bad I forget
from the moment you walk in.
You're every medicine I need to let me live.

I'm wishing there was somebody here.
Alone in the atmosphere.
Someday the sky's going to clear,


I'm wishing there was somebody here.
Alone in the atmosphere.
Someday the sky's going to clear,
and I'm going to find a way to get down from here.
and I'm going to find a way to get down from here.
