Leave the War Behind

from Leave the War Behind by Brother of Mars

lyrics

Another night has gone
I’m looking forward to seeing the sun
But mummy said to wait
Coz the smoke’s still thick in the sky

Another day’s ahead
Time to feed my skinny bones
Mummy got some bread
I hope it’s not that hard

I can never remember
What stupid day it is today
You can’t leave this shelter
Unless you are looking to die

There’s a spider on my dusty bed
The only friend I could find
I bet it’s sick of this place too
There ain’t no prays left to catch

Here comes a soldier
To announce who’s still alive

CHORUS
I hope with all my heart
To leave the war behind
I dream of days the widows will stop crying
I hope with all my heart
To leave the war behind
I wish my dad could sleep with us tonight

I hope with all my heart
To leave the war behind
Hate and fear make people’s eyes go blind
I hope with all my heart
To leave the war behind
This cannot be our last goodbye

The ground was shaking
And I felt the blast on my chest
While we were trying to escape
On board of a foreign car

But here I am now
Many years have been passing by
My wife‘s from a different flag
The one that dropped the bombs on us

Here come the nightmares
In my mind they’re still alive

CHORUS
