Lyrics

Remember when I told you
You looked like a soldier
You laughed and turned around and said
Hey how about now
Am I a soldier now
Every other hour
You pick me like a flower
Hold me underwater
Until I'm good and drowned
Then you pull me out
Kicking and screaming is the only way we go down
Kicking and screaming is the only way we know how
Something about the evening
Reminds me of the shouting
The fighting and the feeling
I couldn't even breathe when
You threw me out
Turned me inside out
Staring in the window
Watching how the wind blows
Rivers in the new snow
That keeps falling down
'Til it cover the ground
Coming home half-lit
Like a broken matchstick
If I can even get to you
How can I hold you now
When I'm inside out
Kicking and screaming is the only way we go down
Kicking and screaming is the only way we know how
Someday while we're living
The kids will come to visit
We'll be on the porch wishing
We could all come back somehow
To right about now
Remember when I told you
You looked like a soldier
You laughed and shook your head
And turned around and said
How about now?
Who's a soldier now?
Coming home half-lit
Like a broken matchstick
If I can't even get to you
How can I hold you now
Who's a soldier now?
Someday while we're living
The kids will come to visit
We'll be on the porch wishing
We could all come back somehow
To right about now
Kicking and screaming is the only way we go down
Kicking and screaming is the only way we know how
