Cut Worms - Veteran's Day

on and on i’ve went and gone and fallen so far behind
running always working never having no time

let off from the army settle into sweet repose
keeping everything inside until it explodes

come up in my dream, you won’t come down
you get the feeling that you’re being run out of town
I was a soldier in the evergreen war
nobody seems to talk about it no more

you, you don’t know, what this life can do to a fool like me
you, you don’t know, what this life can do to a
fool like me

strangers and their kindnesses help me along the way
give me so much more than I can hope to repay

situations rise and fall but they don’t belong
to me
I can’t get inside ‘em can’t pretend that I see

caught up in my dream, you won’t get free
you start to get the feeling you’re lost out at sea
tell all the old men stop telling tales
nobody really believes in chasing white whales

oh you, you don’t know, what a love can do to a fool like me
you, you don’t know, what a love can do to a fool like me

lying underwater looking up at the surface lights
shining so alive and playing games with my eyes

footfalls on the
cobblestone echoing in the fog
I just act at their command, I do tricks like a dog

come up in my dream, you won’t come out
you start to see what the mad men are laughing about
somewhere in my dream I already know
i’ve had this one before and I know how it goes

oh you, you don’t know, what this world can do to a fool like me
you, you don’t know, what this world can do to a fool like me
