Swiss Army Life (Lyrics)

Young and mean, is this the life? Thinkin' how you spend your time face down in mud and twine, knee deep in blood and swine Losin' friends and all the while makin' foes that span for miles Wanting more than a rank-n-file stuck in a Swiss army life like mine Livin' in my beat up apartment no I don't have much luck Golden things don't travel my way, no I don't win too much So I went another way They got me in a one room tent by the sea Why can't it be one more day and I'm out Is this the life I sought out? Broken dreams with Swiss army knives My mother told me "son, that ain't the place you wanna go" I want a life of mine, I want a life I own I shoulda known that you can't love through a letter and you can't kill from a rhyme And I'm lookin' for an escape from Swiss army life
