Civilian Ways Songtext

von Rancid

I hold the cold steel of my rifle as I dream of
Foreign lands and I promise myself I will cherish every moment I can but there's ghosts
That follow me around everywhere I am when I
Say goodby I try to be strong now i'm
Going back to the us where I belong I
Ain't never alone the war seems to follow me
Home no longer an active soldier when I
Walk down the street now i'm shaking
Hands with everyone that I meet and I watch
Everyone and wondering what they
See

Civilian ways are now what's foreign to me i
Came off a long tour I left this
Place in two o three may we never forget the sacrifices my friends made for me

I live in marysville out on the country line
And my brother and my mother both visit me
All the time and visions of you are
Always running right through my mind
We always talk about what were gonna do
When the war is won were gonna fix
Up them old cars and ride them into the sun
When I heard you're no longer with us man
I was done

Civilian ways....
