When The War Ends
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.
Shed me from the universe
Carry me from lies
It's been beautiful to find this world
And i'm sure it will when it ends
Step into the corners
The darker, colder corners fit best
Hang me from the ceilings
Little mobile constellation lights
When the war ends, yeah
We'll wonder what it was about
And when we grow old, yeah
We'll all wonder how we missed out
I've got soulful days to counter evil ways
Will we need it?
When the war ends, yeah
We'll wonder what it was about
And when we grow old, yeah
No one will ever miss you
So you know that you'll not be missed
Closer to the clouds than anyone ever cared to see
Close to the mountains, woods, oceans, and rivers and trees
Close to the soulful days that counters all our evil ways
I've got soulful days to counter evil ways
Will we need it?
When the war ends, yeah
We'll wonder what it was about
And when we grow old, yeah
We'll all wonder how we missed out
I'll bring you all along with me
