Born in a War |
It’s all so temporary |
Life’s work, don’t play that way |
Life’s more than cash and carry |
All your guns, to your grave |
Is it too much to carry? |
Is it too much to ask you why? |
I have a sinking feeling I know why |
I have a sinking feeling I know |
Born to an insensitive fool |
You’ve been damned by |
You’re scared |
When a strong man cries |
Is when a strong man dies |
Raised up in a town that’s 80 proof |
Shotgun shells under every roof -- every jail |
Didn’t learn a lot from public schools |
All our books went off to wars -- they could sell |
Is it too much to carry? |
Is it too much to run and hide? |
And what's too much to bury? |
Is it too much to ask you why? |
I have a sinking feeling I know why |
I have a sinking feeling I know |
Swore you an impossible dream |
You’ve been damned by |
You swear |
That when a strong man cries |
Is when a strong man dies |
You’re scared |
That when a strong man cries |
Is when a strong man dies |
But a strong man cries |
A strong man cries |
Just look into this strong man’s eyes |
Look into a strong man’s eyes |
Look into a strong man's eyes |
Raised up in a town that’s 80 proof |
Shotgun shells under every roof |
Bloody hell |
