What Are The Lyrics For Our Own War By Loudon Wainwright III?
Hostilities ended
Nobody cared Any more for the war So a truce was declared So it ends in surrender Then there's peace at least Arms are withdrawn And fire is ceased To stay in a skirmish One needs appetite Two need desire to Keep up a fight But when appetites off And desire is gone Then the fire is held And arms are withdrawn When losses and wounds Are grievous and gory When the battle is pitched In the field there is glory When hearts just aren't in it Retreat leads to rout And then arms are laid down And the fire goes out We remember the ones Who run out of dumb luck Monuments are erected And statutes are struck But we tend to forget If and when we forgive That survivors survive But they never quite live As for our own war Yes I recall now Just what it was like Our own personal hell I've forgotten the good times Heaven's so vague I remember the battles Oh how they raged When losses and wounds Are grievous and gory When the battle is pitched In the field there is glory When hearts just aren't in it Retreat leads to rout And then arms are laid down And the fire goes out When losses and wounds Are grievous and gory When the battle is pitched In the field there is glory When hearts just aren't in it Retreat leads to rout And then arms are laid down And the fire goes out |
