"Civil War (Live)" lyrics
"Civil War (Live)"
It's another day of blue and gray
Since we made our home a battleground
We've drawn the line
You're on the north side
For now, the south side bedroom's mine
Well, it's sister against brother
Friend against lover
It's sad to say but pride's the tie that binds
Tell me, what are we fighting for
Nobody's gonna win this civil war
The state of our union
Is one of confusion
We're throwin' words like ragin' cannonballs
And, there's no mistaking
It's our own lives we're taking
We've let our hearts become stone walls
And, we'll never surrender
So we might as well just end here
And declare our independence once and for all
Tell me what are we fighting for
Nobody's gonna win this civil war
Tonight Atlanta's burning
Precious memories are going up in flames
Where once stood pillars of strength
Only ashes remain
Oh it's sister against brother
Friend against lover
Who'd have ever thought forever'd end this way
Tell me, what are we fighting for
Nobody's gonna win this civil war
Oh, tell me what we're fighting for
Nobody's gonna win this civil war...

If you're looking for a letter from me

And like that old train "The Hummingbird" it goes to Alabam
