I was a mess in my open eyed youth
|
I grew up thinking
|
What's good for one, oppresses the other
|
It's my turn, my life, my way, mine, me
|
|
It made me crazy
|
I couldn't fight it
|
I couldn't wait to get away
|
It's a war
|
With the whole wide world
|
It's a war
|
With the boys and girls
|
It's a war
|
And nothin's gonna change [And nothin's gonna change]
|
And nothin's gonna change [And nothin's gonna change]
|
|
It's sister and brother, mother and daughter
|
Father, son, husband, wife, thing
|
|
It's drugs, it's hunger
|
It's race, sex, and government
|
Any way you look at it, you're part of it, you know it
|
|
The wrong inside you, can't get it right
|
You might as well get on the train
|
|
It's a war
|
With the whole wide world
|
It's a war
|
With the boys and girls
|
It's a war
|
And nothin's gonna change [And nothin's gonna change]
|
And nothin's gonna change [And nothin's gonna change]
|
|
The screen is so white, and it's so big
|
It's hard to get over the feeling, you're losing your mind
|
|
You offer the usher your ticket
|
You open the soda, see what guy you're sitting behind
|
|
You get excited, the lights go down
|
You get it fed on a plate.
|
|
It's a war
|
With the whole wide world
|
It's a war
|
With the boys and girls
|
It's a war
|
And nothin's gonna change
|
And nothin's gonna change
|
|
It's a war
|
All the give and take
|
It's a war
|
All the love and hate
|
It's a war
|
And nothin's gonna change
|
And nothin's gonna change
|
And nothin's gonna change
|
And nothin's gonna change
|
And nothin's gonna change
|
And nothin's gonna change
|
|
Nothin's gonna change
|
Nothin's gonna change
|
Nothin's gonna change
|
Nothin's gonna change
|
