War
Arms are crossed and eyes face down
Life has bled out of our hometown
There's nowhere left for bands to play
And we're all waxing about the better days
The doors are shut
The marquee's black
The way it goes
It's never coming back
No kids outside
Drinking in the park
Just cell phone lights
Reflected in their eyes
War - out on the dance floor
War - out in the street
War - out on the dance floor
War - for you and me
We are the keepers of a dying flame
We are the teachers of a dying game
Without the music, our souls will turn to dust
The steel in our hearts will star to rust
The doors are shut
The marquee's black
The way it goes
It's never coming back
No kids outside
Drinking in the park
Just cell phone lights
Reflected in their eyes
War - out on the dance floor
War - out in the street
War - out on the dance floor
War - for you and me
Without the kids, the train goes off the track
Blood in our veins, the bones in our back
This way of life is under attack
And once its gone, it won't be coming back
The doors are shut
The marquee's black
The way it goes
It's never coming back
No kids outside
Drinking in the park
Just cell phone lights
Reflected in their eyes
War - out on the dance floor
War - out in the street
War - out on the dance floor
War - for you and me
War
War
War
War
Life has bled out of our hometown
There's nowhere left for bands to play
And we're all waxing about the better days
The doors are shut
The marquee's black
The way it goes
It's never coming back
No kids outside
Drinking in the park
Just cell phone lights
Reflected in their eyes
War - out on the dance floor
War - out in the street
War - out on the dance floor
War - for you and me
We are the keepers of a dying flame
We are the teachers of a dying game
Without the music, our souls will turn to dust
The steel in our hearts will star to rust
The doors are shut
The marquee's black
The way it goes
It's never coming back
No kids outside
Drinking in the park
Just cell phone lights
Reflected in their eyes
War - out on the dance floor
War - out in the street
War - out on the dance floor
War - for you and me
Without the kids, the train goes off the track
Blood in our veins, the bones in our back
This way of life is under attack
And once its gone, it won't be coming back
The doors are shut
The marquee's black
The way it goes
It's never coming back
No kids outside
Drinking in the park
Just cell phone lights
Reflected in their eyes
War - out on the dance floor
War - out in the street
War - out on the dance floor
War - for you and me
War
War
War
War
