War
The stubborn earth keeps swinging 'round the sun
Across its face the old eternal battle's lost and won
Somewhere hatred marches 'cross the sands, waving flags
Somewhere someone kneels in fear, a life in hardened hands
Oh my brother, yes, I know, the highest way is love
But when you're coming for my throat
Anger claims its own, and I call out
War
See these hands held high
Let it fall
'Cause this could be the better life
Open up your eyes
Breaking headline, news is on repeat
Shaken faces, shrapneled bodies, dancing in the streets
Long ago two ancient armies lay their weary weapons down
Let the generals gnash their teeth
Tear themselves apart
And we call out
War
See these hands held high
Let it fall
We're not about to pay your price, we call out
War
Seek no sacrifice
Anymore
'Cause this could be the better life
It could be now
Are you down with darkness?
Or are you looking for the light?
Oh I know that it's true
Tell me what you're ready for
Oh, let's surrender tonight
We run, we stumble, fall, we rise and fight
Innocence, here and gone
Experience, slowly won
History, destiny, rolling on
More than ever
Now or never
More than ever
More than ever now
Across its face the old eternal battle's lost and won
Somewhere hatred marches 'cross the sands, waving flags
Somewhere someone kneels in fear, a life in hardened hands
Oh my brother, yes, I know, the highest way is love
But when you're coming for my throat
Anger claims its own, and I call out
War
See these hands held high
Let it fall
'Cause this could be the better life
Open up your eyes
Breaking headline, news is on repeat
Shaken faces, shrapneled bodies, dancing in the streets
Long ago two ancient armies lay their weary weapons down
Let the generals gnash their teeth
Tear themselves apart
And we call out
War
See these hands held high
Let it fall
We're not about to pay your price, we call out
War
Seek no sacrifice
Anymore
'Cause this could be the better life
It could be now
Are you down with darkness?
Or are you looking for the light?
Oh I know that it's true
Tell me what you're ready for
Oh, let's surrender tonight
We run, we stumble, fall, we rise and fight
Innocence, here and gone
Experience, slowly won
History, destiny, rolling on
More than ever
Now or never
More than ever
More than ever now
