The Good War
We fumble around, pushing stones through the mesh
We reap as we sow, but so sown to the flesh
I had to dream in monochrome, a lie that they spun
Think I hear heaven calling me home when light pours from the sun
Two lives later, I'll find
Everybody's gone 'round here
We raise arms but ain't got a hand to call mine
I'm still out to find my peace of mind
I'm running on a heartbeat, I can feel it in my blood flow
Eyes up when they call me 'cause we're fighting in a good war
So send me off with a Godspeed, and I'll slip through the backdoor
You and I are gonna die free 'cause we're fighting in a good war
We fumble around, pushing homes from the nest
We're too far to be found ('cause we're fighting in a good war)
Yeah, I had to speak in protocol, biting my tongue
Sometimes I hear hell calling me home, yeah, but I know it's such a lie we spun
I'm running on a heartbeat, I can feel it in my blood flow
Eyes up when they call me 'cause we're fighting in a good war
So send me off with a Godspeed, and I'll slip through the backdoor
You and I are gonna die free 'cause we're fighting in a good war
I'm running on a heartbeat, I can feel it in my blood flow
Eyes up when they call me 'cause we're fighting in a good war
So send me off with a Godspeed, and I'll slip through the backdoor
You and I are gonna die free 'cause we're fighting in a good war
We reap as we sow, but so sown to the flesh
I had to dream in monochrome, a lie that they spun
Think I hear heaven calling me home when light pours from the sun
Two lives later, I'll find
Everybody's gone 'round here
We raise arms but ain't got a hand to call mine
I'm still out to find my peace of mind
I'm running on a heartbeat, I can feel it in my blood flow
Eyes up when they call me 'cause we're fighting in a good war
So send me off with a Godspeed, and I'll slip through the backdoor
You and I are gonna die free 'cause we're fighting in a good war
We fumble around, pushing homes from the nest
We're too far to be found ('cause we're fighting in a good war)
Yeah, I had to speak in protocol, biting my tongue
Sometimes I hear hell calling me home, yeah, but I know it's such a lie we spun
I'm running on a heartbeat, I can feel it in my blood flow
Eyes up when they call me 'cause we're fighting in a good war
So send me off with a Godspeed, and I'll slip through the backdoor
You and I are gonna die free 'cause we're fighting in a good war
I'm running on a heartbeat, I can feel it in my blood flow
Eyes up when they call me 'cause we're fighting in a good war
So send me off with a Godspeed, and I'll slip through the backdoor
You and I are gonna die free 'cause we're fighting in a good war
