Unholy War

from LIFE as LOVE as ART by Wailing Whales

lyrics

Well I was not born for this
But I will do my very best
To live for the moment.
Though now it grows inside of me
This isn’t who I’m supposed to be
Well what the hell does that mean?
Give up before you lose the fight
But I do that almost every night
Then wake up and do it again, I thought life was a Godsend.

Some say we’re made to be thrown away.
Though this trash pile’s tall this unholy war won’t keep me at bay

So mother can you hear me
I’m hosed and I want to be
Back in my own bed
Because I’ve fought many wars
Though they’re not ours we’ll finish yours
You’re welcome now just drop it!

Some say we’re made to be thrown away.
Though this trash pile’s tall this unholy war won’t keep me at bay
So hush my love, don’t push and shove
For the fight’s living in me.
I will be, all I can be,
Oh my darling don’t you see?

This paper-boy will not break, on the eve of this fight
Though it’s gone too far
And I know he will leave these forces and come join with you
And he will be all that you want him to be.
