Lyrics:
Soldier soldier
We signed our lives away
Complete surrender
The only weapon we know
Soldier soldier
We knew the world would never be the same
Soldier this is where you can reach me now
We come from an ancient place
Beyond what we can see
We've come to colonise your night
And steal your poetry
Old man knows that I never listen
So how could I have something to say
Old man knows how to cheat ambition
You don't lose if you don't play
1, 2, 3, 4, was enough
Soldier soldier
We signed our lives away
Complete surrender
The only weapon we know
Soldier soldier
We knew the world would never be the same
Soldier this is where you can reach me now
On a double decker bus
Into College Square
If you won't let us in your world
Your world just isn't there
Old men says that we never listen
We shout about what we don't know
We're taking the path of most resistance
The only way for us to go
hup, 2, 3, 4, was enough
Soldier soldier
We signed our lives away
Complete surrender
The only weapon we know
Soldier soldier
We knew the world would never be the same
Soldier this is where you can reach me now
This is the site
This is the reason
This is where you can reach me now
This is the time
This is the number
This is where you can reach me now
The starting music guys, it's an another U2 song but I can't come up which one.
After the drums, I thinks it a Passengers song but can't put my finger on it.
Still great! I don't like the "low-key" verses much, but they contrast nicely against the uptempo, "up-key" chorus and intro. A final sung chorus after the "This is the time, this is the..." part instead of the instrumental ending and it woul dbe purrrrrfect.
AMAZING lyrics, Mr. Hewson. Joe Strummer would be proud I feel.

Slug from Passengers. Good catch! I knew I recognized it too, went back after seeing your comment and instantly placed it.
