Wolf Parade - Soldier's Grin lyrics

Soldier’s Grin Lyrics
In my head, there's a city at night
Static age with the rush and the lights
United's concourse you look very fine
But this place here is no friend of mine

And what you know can only mean one thing
And what you know can only mean one thing
Rooted to the place that you sprang from
And this dirt was a building before
Shut it down before they opened the doors
Don't shout don't holler
Don't you cry what has passed
We'll just leave it behind

And I rode
Horse-shapéd fire dragging stereo wire
And we rode
Chemicals until the breaking of dawn
And I rose over a town
Raised up by the sound of it's drone
And I rose higher like horses
But can't make the horses lay down

This place here is no friend of mine
What's passed we'll just leave it behind
And what you know can only mean one thing
And what you know can only mean one thing
Rooted to the place that you sprang from
