(A. Scott/Sloan)
|
|
Free for all so choose your places well
|
But you won't believe all the things we're telling you
|
End it all before the curtain falls
|
Because all time will tell
|
Is that everything is a lie
|
|
I lost the fight but won the war
|
And no one really knows what it is we're fighting for
|
You lost the fight but won the war
|
And no one really knows what it is we're fighting for
|
|
But if you think that it's cold when you're swimming in the ocean
|
It's hard to believe you're a Nova Scotian boy
|
Have you considered the cost of abusing your devotion
|
And if we get lost we can find out
|
Where it was we used to be when time stood still for you
|
|
You or I could tell a story well
|
But attention fell before the lights came on again
|
Without the sense of hearing
|
My thoughts are disappearing
|
And all time will tell
|
Is that anyone can decide
|
|
I lost the fight but won the war
|
And no one really knows what it is we're fighting for anyway
|
You lost the fight but won the war
|
And no one really knows what it is we're fighting for
|
|
But if you think that it's cold when you're swimming in the ocean
|
It's hard to believe you're a Nova Scotian boy
|
Have you considered the cost of abusing your devotion
|
And if we get lost we can find out
|
Where it was we used to be
|
We're following signs to the sea
|
So take your time
|
If you're leaving before me
|
And say goodbye
|
Say bye bye
|
