lyrics

Quit the War

Hey hey why don't you stay
What's your trouble
Come and take a break
Raise the flag, you can't win the war today
Hey hey, round is over
Take the gloves off
Put the punch away
Lay me down, let me make it all okay

And I don't know what we're fighting for
Years ago I quit the war
I can't take no more tragedy
Was a time I quit the war
Was a time I quit the war

Deep freeze, ancient history
Block the trenches
From my memory
Everything here is happier to me
Tell me price and purpose
Is it worth it
Is it what you want
Or is it true that you've had it all along

And I don't know what we're fighting for
Years ago I quit the war
I can't take no more tragedy
Was a time I quit the war
Was a time I quit the war

Hold me tight, keep it safe, leave it outside, please stay
Hold me tight, keep it safe, leave it outside, please stay
Hold me tight, keep it safe, leave it outside, please stay
Hold me tight, keep it safe, leave it outside, please stay

And I don't know what we're fighting for
Years ago I quit the war
I can't take no more tragedy
Was a time I quit the war
Was a time I quit the war
Was a time I quit the war
Was a time I quit the war
