I walk these streets with bloodied hands Looking for the peace I lost Buried in the sand, we live our lives On front lines We are all at war with time It's what they say, I wouldn't have it any other way After the war Nobody comes back the same, when all is said and done Even though I held no gun After the war Nobody feels the same As long as night still follows day True are the words all errant fathers say To love is to lose, but I still refuse to give up hope It's what they say, I wouldn't have it any other way After the war Nobody comes back the same, when all is said and done Even though I held no gun After the war Nobody feels the same So join me in this pale moonlight Swear that we won't lose the fight Dig deeper into the sand, and always swim against the tide We swear an oath to those who've died We will never forget It's what they say, I wouldn't have it any other way After the war Nobody comes back the same, when all is said and done Even though I held no gun After the war Nobody feels the same.
