I’ve got a friend he’s a pure-bred killing machine
He say’s he’s waited his whole damn life for this.
I knew him well when he was seventeen.
Now he’s a man he’ll be dead by Christmas
And so, everybody’s going to war
But we don’t know what we’re fighting for
Don’t tell me it’s a worth cause
No cause could be so worthy.
If love is a drug, I guess we’re all sober
If hope is a song, then I guess it’s all over
How to have faith, when faith is crime
I don’t want to die
If god’s on our side, then god is a joker
Asleep on the job, his children fall over
Running out through the door and straight to sky
I don’t want to die
For every man who wants to rule the world
There’ll be a man who just wants to be free
What do we learn but what should not be learned?
Too late to find a cure for this disease
And so, everybody’s going to war
But we don’t know what we’re fighting for
Don’t tell me it’s a worth cause
No cause could be so worthy.
If love is a drug, I guess we’re all sober
If hope is a song, then I guess it’s all over
How to have faith, when faith is crime
I don’t want to die
If god’s on our side, then god is a joker
Asleep on the job, his children fall over
Running out through the door and straight to sky
I don’t want to die
I- I- I- I don’t want to die
I- I don’t want to die
I’ve got a friend he’s a pure-bred killing machine
He say’s he’s waited his whole damn life for this.
I knew him well when he was seventeen.
Now he’s a man he’ll be dead by Christmas
