Sad Soldier

How I’d like to just sit and hold you And tell you everything will be ok But the world went crazy And it’s so fucked up I’ve never known skies so grey So while they wait for the next thing to go wrong I just remember That music is my gun So here’s some words for you to say... Wake me when it’s over I don’t wanna hear the news today Common sense is a little sad soldier, yeah I hate this shit I’m over it, don’t wanna Have to hope and pray That we’ll say “man, that was a close one” When I went to bed that shocking evening And I woke up early that black day For the very first time I started wondering If I made a huge mistake That I would bring such a beautiful new life to all this bullshit Then I took one look at your face And I knew every second with you was a good day I don’t wanna hang my head discouraged Just sad that nothing’s ever gonna change Complacency is death, so I say fuck that Let’s push until we find a way We can’t wait until it’s over Can’t afford to close our eyes today Common sense is a little sad soldier, yeah Don’t ask “why’d all the angels leave?” When things aren’t supposed to be this way Cuz the soldier - he asks “what... have we done?” Must be another way
