Song lyrics

Send "All These Things That I've Done" ringtones to your cell

When there's nowhere else to run
Is there room for one more son
One more son
If you can hold on
If you can hold on, hold on

I wanna stand up, I wanna let go
You know, you know - no you don't, you don't
I wanna shine on in the hearts of men
I want a meaning from the back of my broken hand

Another head aches, another heart breaks
I'm so much older than I can take
And my affection, well it comes and goes
I need direction to perfection, no no no no

Help me out
Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
You know you got to help me out, yeah

And when there's nowhere else to run
Is there room for one more son
These changes ain't changing me
The cold-hearted boy I used to be

Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
You know you got to help me out, yeah.
You're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down

I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier

[Time, Truth, Hearts]

Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
You know you got to help me out, yeah.
You're gonna bring yourself down, yeah.
You're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
You're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down

Over and in, last call for sin
While everyone's lost, the battle is won
With all these things that I've done
All these things that I've done
If you can hold on
If you can hold on

2,777 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal This is my favorite song at the moment. I love the "you know, you know, no you dont you dont" part, its the coolest, but then I love repetitive lyrics like that. I don't get the "I got soul but I'm not a soldier" part tho, whats up with that? I still love it tho...

3 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal I imagine that "I got soul, but I'm not a soldier" has pacifist undertones; he's a strong person, but he wouldn't kill or be violent to promote what he believed in. The entire song has religion underlying its meaning ("Is there room for one more son?" i.e Son of God). It seems he's looking back on his life and sins "all these things that I've done", and trying to change himself - now he's "got soul but he's not a soldier."

14 posts	I remember when this band hardly had any fame, and when I saw them play live, especially this song(best song on the album), I knew they were gonna get really popular. Ah, the Killers. One of my favorite bands ever.

14 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal I was on the fence with song, but when I heard the "I've got soul, but I'm not a soldier." part, I fell in love with it. I'm also a big fan of Mr. Brightside and Somebody Told Me. I also love Smile Like You Mean It. That song is awesome. Long story short, I LOVE the Killers!
