Warsong

I got the call one summer night

He said you're on tomorrow's flight

My mother cried, my sister too

My father said I'm proud of you, yes I am son

I can't believe it's true, we're going after who

And still I wish that I just knew

What are we fighting for?

When the price we pay is endless war

What are we fighting for?

All we know we need is peace

Though I'm blind to what I see

They tell me there's an enemy

I know I gotta get outta here

Insanity is drawing near, I'm going crazy

Can't take it anymore, I've knocked on heaven's door

No I'm not dying for this war

What are we fighting for?

When the price we pay is endless war

What are we fighting for?

All we know we need is peace

What are we fighting for?

Can't we learn from what we've done before

What are we fighting for?

Yeah, when no one ever wins, in war

A young man returns from war

Where he didn't know, what he was fighting for

The streets remained the same but people changed

The medals on his chest, didn't mean a thing

A tear dropped from the corner of his eye, did he come home?

Now, listen up, my grandpa died on Normandy

My brother is still in Vietnam, he ain't comin' home

I know there's nothing good in war

I know 'cause I've been there before, oh yes, I have

So what am I gonna do, I know this war ain't through

And still I wish that I just knew

What are we fighting for?

When the price we pay is endless war

What are we fighting for?

All we know we need is peace

What are we fighting for?

Can't we learn form what we've done before

What are we fighting for?

When no one ever wins

What are we fighting for?

When the price we pay is endless war

What are we fighting for?

When all we need is peace

What are we fighting for?

Can't we learn form what we've done before

What are we fighting for?

When no one ever wins, in war, in war, in war, in war
