A Different Type of War

Sitting on the sofa
On a Tuesday afternoon
Waiting for the supernova
To crash into the room
The day goes on and on and on
From dusk to another dawn
But like everything that's come before
This too will pass

So wait it out
There's better days ahead
These times apart
Will soon come to an end

Its courageous to stay in
When the instinct is flight
Toxic bleach runs through our veins
When the leaders out of sight
We don't see it go around
Just the bodies on the ground
Do we go six feet under
Or stand two feet apart

So wait it out
There's better days ahead
These times apart
Will soon come to an end

We've turned people into pixels
And the keyboard is their voice
Fear breeds conspiracies
When facts become a choice
There comes a time in our lives
When we learn to sacrifice
Our father's father wore helmets
And we wear a mask

So wait it out
There's better days ahead
These times apart
Will soon come to an end

So wait it out
There's better days ahead
These times apart
Will soon come to an end

So rise together like we are one
And we'll drink again when this is done
And write a story that will be sung
For a thousand years in a thousand tongues

So rise together like we are one
And we'll drink again when this is done
And write a story that will be sung
We're the victors of a different type of war
