| A tooth for a tooth and a child for a child
|
| Until there is nobody left alive
|
| And it’s a war of attrition; |
| we all fight for religion, in the name of some
|
| vengeful god
|
| When I was a child, I was told, ‘by the time you grow up this war will be long
|
| gone', but
|
| We fucked\\messed it up
|
| So now like father like father like son, the apples are falling so close to the
|
| tree
|
| And now there’s a green line that separates the good from the bad and a wall
|
| that keeps everyone in
|
| But oh my oh my
|
| Those were times of shame and glory
|
| My oh my, we were young and we were holy
|
| My oh my, won’t you say that you still love me like you did back then
|
| Now my bedroom rocking like a ship with no sails
|
| I’m headed straight towards the storm
|
| And so I made me a promise, I said never again
|
| And then I went out and I drank some more
|
| It’s a silent count; |
| the lights go out… one, two, three… now here come the drums
|
| But oh my oh my
|
| Those were times of shame and glory
|
| My oh my, we were young and we were holy
|
| My oh my, won’t you say that you’ll hold me like you did, like you did…
|
| Those were times of shame and glory
|
| My oh my, we were young and we were holy
|
| My oh my, won’t you say that you’ll hold me like you did back then
|
| If there’s a god, I think he’s too late, it’s breaking my heart oh my oh my
|
| He’s chosen his side He made up his mind, and I think we’re on the losing end… |
