Yeah, I’ve seen your kind before
A long, long time ago
In my past
It was just a game
Whether you win or lose
It’s a joy
You shoot someone – somebody dies
You pierce someone – if feels alright
Remember how my mother were
With iron will and eyes of coal
The way she asked to stay
Who’ll wash away the gore?
But I don’t play it anymore
And now I’ve changed my mind
Was so blind to find
I’ve never seen a war before oh-oh
And I’ve been walking through the streets but no one plays
And I’ve been hiding in the church but no one prays
And let me build a new home – no one adores me
And let me drawn my lungs – no one loves me
Yeah, I’ve adored you too
But I don’t understand you
Now in my present
It’s just a way of life
Whether you win or lose
It’s still a joy
You tear someone – somebody cries
You nuke someone – no love tonight
Remember how my father were
With my thoughts and lazy soul
The way he asked to stay
Who’ll be you fighting for?
But I don’t play it anymore
And now I’ve changed my mind
Was so blind to find
I’ve never seen a war before oh-oh
And I’ve been walking through the streets but no one plays
And I’ve been hiding in the church but no one prays
And let me build a new home – no one adores me
And let me drawn my lungs – no one loves me
What else can I hear or say?
Come out and play again
But I don’t play it anymore
And now I’ve changed my mind
Was so blind to find
I’ve never seen a war before oh-oh
And I’ve been walking through the streets but no one plays
And I’ve been hiding in the church but no one prays
And let me build a new home – no one adores me
And let me drawn my lungs – no one loves me
Can’t you hear, can’t you hear them saying
Come out and play again
Why can’t you come out and stay in your empty playground?
Why can’t you come out and stay?
