What are we fighting for?
You never question the faces you put Xs beside
What kind of system gives you a choice but no place to hide
I wish that we could all barter, come to a compromise
The doors are locked but no one's coming
They're never gonna take our side
We won't forgive lest they forget the world they're burning
Somebody pull us in
Caught in a wave
Oh the pain we're going under
Nothing to save me from the end
Would you be happier to take my life and face the thunder
So give me back my name
We won't pretend
We won't pretend
What are we fighting for?
This Is War
This Is War
Well it's coming around again
This Is War
This Is War
Well it's just a game to them
Where does the sacrifice we make pay off in any way?
No love for life, can't stop the knife that marked you led astray
You'd take it all if you thought maybe you could get away
With murder like your friends did just the same oh
You can make us pay
It's getting dark, the word is in, the earth is burning
Just can't fight the flood
Caught in a wave
Oh the pain we're going under
Nothing to save me from the end
Would you be happier to take my life and face the thunder
So give me back my name
We won't pretend
We won't pretend
What are we fighting for?
Gentle comes the sound of smug deception
Keep the line dividing
Gentle comes the sound of smug deception
Keep the line dividing
Us
So when will you decide
On your dividing lines
You won't escape this time
You're on your own
Caught in a wave
Oh the pain we're going under
Nothing to save me from the end
Would you be happier to take my life and face the thunder
So give me back my name
We won't pretend
We won't pretend
What are we fighting for?
This Is War
This Is War
Well it's coming around again
This Is War
This Is War
Keep the line dividing us
