Lyrics
Time To Go Home
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Those who start wars never fight them
And those who fight wars never like them
Those who write laws can recite them
And those of us who just fight laws we live and die them
But I know
They never gonna tell you why no
They only wanna tell you lies no
Never ever gonna tell you why no
It's time - it's time to go home
Don't take our boys away, no
Don't take our girls away, no
Those who build walls are pretending
That forever they can defend them
And those who dance dreams
Can build fountains
And those of us who just let them run free
We can move mountains
How many people were they runnin' from and
How many people never saw it comin'?
How many people never heard the warning?
How many people should have stayed at home and
How many people never heard the call and
How many people never saw at all?
How many people did they spend it on and
How many people got to sing this song?
How many people never heard the cry and
How many people gotten pushed aside
How many people never saw the dove fly?
How many people never said goodbye
How many people never saw the fall and
How many people till we end it all and
How many people never saw the wrong and
How many people did they drop the bomb on?
