The Good War (Reimagined)

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

Two lives, later I'll find
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 a good war
So send me off with a godspeed, then I slip through the backdoor
You and I are gonna die free, 'cause we're fighting in a good war

We fumble around
Pushing homes from the nest
We're too far to be found (fighting in a good war)
I had to speak at protocol
Biting my tongue
Sometimes I hear hell calling me home
Yeah, I know, it's such a lie we spin

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 a good war
So send me off with a godspeed, then I slam through the backdoor
You and I are gonna die free, 'cause we're fighting in a good war

Two lives, later I'll find
Everybody's gone 'round here
Raise arms, but ain't 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 a good war
So send me off with a godspeed, then I slip through the backdoor
