The moon is full and I'm awake
|
And I don't know how much
|
I can take
|
Before I get too angry to be sad
|
Too many people thinkin' mean
|
Good ones few and far between
|
Takin' out on you
|
What they never had
|
|
It's a war, war
|
War any more
|
It's a war, war
|
War every day
|
You've got to keep your guard up
|
If someone else is hard up
|
He'll try to steal your dreams away
|
|
Once I thought of compassion as
|
A feelin' everybody has
|
Do unto others
|
That's the golden rule
|
But I found to my regret
|
People I had never met
|
Were out to get me--I was just a fool
|
|
It's a war, war
|
War any more
|
It's a war, war
|
War every day
|
You've got to keep your guard up
|
If someone else is hard up
|
He'll try to steal your dreams away
|
