A War Called Home - Strung Out

We are the last remains

We are bridge over troubled water

We are the renegades

We are awake to what’s going on

I was the son of a promised land

Whose father’s youth was lost in Vietnam

One nation believed all the TV said

Killed Kennedy and screamed «God is dead!»

Come sing along with me our song it can’t be wrong

We are the last remains that carry on

We are the bombs that rain

Upon the ones that have done no wrong

We are the oil fields

That’ll burn till all hope is gone

So raise a flag and prey on everything gone wrong

In CEO we trust to carry on

We are the breakdown, come on and get down

Forever young, gonna tear this shit down

To write a story, our own story

To be the ones that’ll change direction

Cause I’ve been asleep too long

And I can’t remember how I got so numb

To what’s going on

We need no hand grenades

No machine guns to make us strong

We are the every day

They got armies well we got ours

So sing along with me we are the beating heart

That pumps this blood through veins that carry me on

So put your flag down, come on and get down

We are the ones that’ll tear this shit down

To write our story, our history

Without bombs or religious glory

Cause we’ve been asleep too long

With no real answer how it got this far

Tonight I will not close my eyes

How can we ever sleep again

How can we ever sleep the same

How can we ever sleep the same
