But the only soldier now is me I'm fighting things I cannot see
Marlene on the wall
Observe the blood, the rose tattoo of the fingerprints on me from you
By the butcher shot with the sawdust strewn
But the only soldier now is me I'm fighting things I cannot see
She records the rise and fall of every man who's been here
I think it's called my destiny that I am changing
And I tried so hard to resist when you held me in your handsome fist
I think it's called my destiny that I am changing
I think it's called my destiny that I am changing
And even if I am in love with you all this to say, what's it to you?
But the only one here now is me I'm fighting things I cannot see
I think it's called my destiny that I am changing
But the only soldier now is me I'm fighting things I cannot see
And reminded me of the night we kissed and of why I should be leaving
She records the rise and fall of every soldier passing
Marlene watches from the wall her mocking smile says it all
She records the rise and fall of every soldier passing
Other evidence has shown that you and I are still alone
She records the rise and fall of every soldier passing
And I tried so hard to resist when you held me in your handsome fist
Marlene watches from the wall her mocking smile says it all
And reminded me of the night we kissed and of why I should be leaving
Marlene on the wall
Other evidence has shown that you and I are still alone
She records the rise and fall of every soldier passing
Marlene watches from the wall her mocking smile says it all
We skirt around the danger zone and don't talk about it later
Marlene watches from the wall her mocking smile says it all
"Don't give away the goods too soon", is what she might have told me
Marlene watches from the wall her mocking smile says it all
Well I walk to your house in the afternoon
Changing, changing, changing, changing
Marlene on the wall
I think it's called my destiny that I am changing
We skirt around the danger zone and don't talk about it later
But the only soldier now is me I'm fighting things I cannot see
