lyrics
Come in,
out the shadow of this lock
this house holds only promise
that’s enough
they say they’ll end this
war with guns
bought with your labor
and shipped to their suns
this war’s not private
it’s not final
this war’s not waged in every street
and if you think you should
be forgiven
seek forgiveness
from your kids
and I
I won’t be waiting
to shoot down
shoot down the dream
that Wilfred Owen
was an Arab
who cut his lines like trenches deep
and how he roamed
your towns at night and
smashed in skulls on curbs
every street
and I
I would be forgiving
I’d wait
to shoot down the dream
the dream
the dream
out the shadow of this lock
this house holds only promise
that’s enough
they say they’ll end this
war with guns
bought with your labor
and shipped to their suns
this war’s not private
it’s not final
this war’s not waged in every street
and if you think you should
be forgiven
seek forgiveness
from your kids
and I
I won’t be waiting
to shoot down
shoot down the dream
that Wilfred Owen
was an Arab
who cut his lines like trenches deep
and how he roamed
your towns at night and
smashed in skulls on curbs
every street
and I
I would be forgiving
I’d wait
to shoot down the dream
the dream
the dream
