Songtext The good war Kimbra

The good war

We fumbled around
Pushing stones through the mesh
We reap cause we sow
It's a song to the flesh
I had to dream in monochrome
A lie that they've spun
I think I hear heaven calling me home
We're like poised from the sun

Two lives, later I'll find
But everybody's comin round here
Raise arms, I've got a hand to call mine
I'm still out to find my peace of mind

I'm runnin on a heartbeat, I can feel it in my blood flow
Eyes up when they call me, cause we're fighting in the good war
Set me off with a godspeed, then I slam on the backdoor
You and I are gonna die free, cause we're fighting in the good war

We fumble around
We're pushing homes from the nest
We're too far to be found, fighting in the good war
I had to speak in the protocol
I was biting my tongue
Sometimes I hear hell calling me home
It's such a lie that we've spun

I'm runnin on a heartbeat, I can feel it in my blood flow
Eyes up when they call me, cause we're fighting in the good war
Set me off with a godspeed, then I slam on the backdoor
You and I are gonna die free, cause we're fighting in the good war

I'm runnin on a heartbeat, I can feel it in my blood flow
Eyes up when they call me, cause we're fighting in the good war
Set me off with a godspeed, then I slam on the backdoor
You and I are gonna die free, cause we're fighting in the good war

Big lies, we cry, no side of the mind
I rise, you rise, no time to disappear
