Everybody's Gone To War lyrics

I've got a friend, he's a pure-bred killing machine

He says he's waited his whole damn life for this

I knew him well when he was seventeen

Now he's a man he'll be dead by Christmas

R.:

And so, everybody's going to war

But we don't know what we're fighting for

Don't tell me it's a worthy cause

No cause could be so worthy

If love is a drug, I guess we're all sober

If hope is a song, I guess it's all over

How to have faith, when faith is a crime?

I don't want to die

I'f God's on our side, then God is a joker

Asleep on the job, his children fall over

Running out through the door and straight to the sky

I don't want to die

For every man who wants to rule the world

There'll be a man who just wants to be free

What do we learn but what should not be learned?

Too late to find a cure for this disease

R.

I don't want to die

I-I-I-I don't want to die

I-I don't want to die

R.

I don't want to die

I-I-I-I don't want to die

I-I don't want to die

I've got a friend, he's a pure-bred killing machine

Now he's a man he'll be dead by Christmas
