Wounded Soldier Songtext
von Interpol

Evil knows
It will spread like a chain reaction
To be shown
The blood stains on the grass will still grow

And I dream violence
Hear a hive of a million wings above me
I run hopelessly
Run aground like I′m burrowing
Hug my knees, now I make my peace

Blood stains the final reaction
Wounded soul, wounded soldier

And I dream violence
Hear a hive of a million wings
Dogging me, I run hopelessly
Run aground like I'm burrowing
Hug my knees, now I make my peace


So this is how it′s shown
Wish I'd never saw it
That man, his body's out there
He′s buried in the snow

I could just say goodbye to somebody
To ease their suffering
I′d say, "Hold tight, good buddy"
I'd say, "We′re grateful souls"

And I dream violence
Hear a hive of a million wings
Haunting me, I run hopelessly
Run aground like I'm burrowing
Hug my knees, now I make my peace

And this is not a show
This is how it goes
That man, his body′s out there
Buried in the snow
Made it to me though
Somebody carried right here


Back into my soul
This is how it goes
That man, his body's out there
His mother′ll never know
His father'll never find it
He's buried in the snow
This is how it goes

This is not a show
A man whose body′s out there
His brother′ll never know
This is how it goes
Back into my soul
That man, his body's out there
His son will never know
