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
