Everybody's Gone to War

I've got a friend, he's a pure-bred killing machine
He said 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

So, everybody's going to war
But we don't know what we're fighting for
Don't tell me it's a worthy cause
No cause could be so worthy

If love is a drug, I guess we're all sober
If hope is a song, 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 learnt
Too late to find a cure for this disease

So, everybody's gone to war
But we don't know what we're fighting for
Don't tell me it's a worthy cause
No cause could be so worthy

If love is a drug, I guess we're all sober
If hope is a song, I guess it's all over
How to have faith, when faith is a 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 of the door and straight to the sky,
I don't want to die

So, everybody's gone to war
But we don't know what we're fighting for
Don't tell me it's a worthy cause
No cause could be so worthy

If love is a drug, I guess we're all sober
If hope is a song, I guess it's all over
How to have faith, when faith is a 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 of the door and straight to the sky,
I don't want to die

I've got a friend, he's a pure-bred killing machine
I think he might be dead by christmas
