"Life During Wartime" lyrics
(originally by Pinhead Gunpowder)
Yeah, we say makin' changes starts in the little things you do
"Revolution begins at home" but for most of us, it ends there, too
We're doing somethin' we're making changes, like changin' the brand of crap we buy
We say it makes a difference, but that's just another lie
It used to be us and them, and you and me
And now we can't reach our potential without a common enemy
A real war to fight against, 'stead of our petty disagreements
How can I rationalize my life during wartime, lie?
A call to action and a reaction
Takin' our lives in our own hands
Instead of sittin' around and talkin' about the same old shitty bands
But war's goin' on right now
And I'm not doin' anything about it
Without a crowd, I'm not so loud
I can't do anything by myself
But that's just another lie
"Revolution begins at home" but for most of us, it ends there, too
We're doing somethin' we're making changes, like changin' the brand of crap we buy
We say it makes a difference, but that's just another lie
It used to be us and them, and you and me
And now we can't reach our potential without a common enemy
A real war to fight against, 'stead of our petty disagreements
How can I rationalize my life during wartime, lie?
A call to action and a reaction
Takin' our lives in our own hands
Instead of sittin' around and talkin' about the same old shitty bands
But war's goin' on right now
And I'm not doin' anything about it
Without a crowd, I'm not so loud
I can't do anything by myself
But that's just another lie
