Holy War — текст песни (Matthew Sweet)

Ive spent twenty years learning to live

In a world that takes back all that it gives

But I do not want a war



cause Im not in for killing another man

Defending my holy land

As if theres a God who would understand



Feeding the promised land

With your blood by my own hand

At allahs own command

At allahs own command



Ive spent twenty years learning to live

In a world that takes back all that it gives

But I do not want a war



I dont know whats going on

In the scenes behind

I worry about it some of the time

And I hope theres not a war



cause Im not in for killing another man

Defending my holy land

As if theres a God who would understand



And I would walk across highways

To find my fate

If that might settle your crude debate

But I do not want a war



cause Im not in for killing another man

Defending my holy land

As if theres a God who would understand



Feeding the promised land

With your blood by my own hand

At allahs own command

At allahs own command



I came up from the desert and here I will die

Tooth for tooth and an eye for an eye

Though I didnt want a war



I went in for killing another man

Defending my holy land

As if theres a God who would understand

As if theres a God who would understand

I went in for killing another man

Defending my holy land

As if theres a God who would understand

As if theres a God who would understand

Oh yeah...
