Lyrics
This War In the middle of town Bunkered in your room You can live with the draft Spring is coming soon A little less jumpy Coffee was your doom Your hell is a lighter Underneath a fuse And you’ve already gone Too far when you’ve won this war The whispering frowns On solitary views One can’t be right When so many fill the pews Man o’ war’s passions Are winning by a nose It’s not how you die It’s how you dig the hole And you’ve already gone Too far when you’ve won this war The trenches all fill in When your freedom rings eternal And you’ve already gone Too far when you’ve won this war c 2005 Sanford A. Mixon (BMI)
