Lyrics

Living with War

[Chorus]

I'm living with war everyday

I'm living with war in my heart everyday

I'm living with war right now

[Verse 1]

And when the dawn breaks I see my fellow man

And on the flat-screen, we kill and we're killed again

And when the night falls, I pray for peace

Try to remember peace

I join the multitudes, I raise my hand in peace

I never bow to the laws of the thought police

I take a holy vow to never kill again

To never kill again

[Chorus]

I'm living with war in my heart

I'm living with war in my heart, in my mind

I'm living with war right now

[Verse 2]

Don't take no tidal wave, don't take no mass grave

Don't take no smoking gun to show how the west was won

But when the curtain falls, I pray for peace

Try to remember peace

In the crowded streets, in the big hotels

In the mosques and the doors of the old museum

I take a holy vow to never kill again

Try to remember peace

[Bridge]

The rocket's red glare

Bombs bursting in air

Give proof through the night

That our flag is still there

[Chorus]

I'm living with war everyday

I'm living with war in my heart everyday

I'm living with war right now

I'm living with war right now

I'm living with war in my heart everyday

I'm living with war right now
