As someone smacked me,
I started breathing,
Then I took a look around,
(Yeah I took a look around)

Dying strangers,
They surround me,
I stood there looking down,
Yes I did, stood the looking down

One, two, ready, go

I'm really not ready for this,
I'm not ready, not ready for this

It's a war, it's a war,
And you better get used to it
It's a war, it's a war,
And that's just the way it is

It's a war,
It's a war

Here we go

Four, three, two, one

For your prison,
Called it high school,
Yeah that's some devastating shit,
(Yeah that's some devastating shit all right)

Mom's been drinkin,
And Dad keeps leaving,
I've seen him a' run, yes I did,
Yeah I've seen him a' run

One, two, ready, go

I'm really not ready for this,
I'm not ready, not ready for this

It's a war, it's a war,
And you better get used to it
It's a war, it's a war,
And that's just the way it is

It's a war,
It's a war

Go!

You get fooled by the flowers and tricked by the sun,
But you better hold on to whatever you love
And don't you believe what you see is what you get,
And never forget, never forget

It's a war, it's a war,
And you better get used to it
It's a war, it's a war,
And that's just the way it is

It's a war, outside my bedroom door,
It's a war, outside my bedroom door, let's go
