Lyrics
War Babies
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.
See the white clouds roll in
Spirits lying next to me
Catch the wildflower falling
It's the wound that never bleeds
Hear the Sirens calling
Spinning out their show
Hold - The moment close to me
Take it down too slow
Be mine, be mine, War Babies
Be mine, be mine, War Babies
Can you still keep going?
Shattered pieces left inside
To face the final, knowing
That there's somethings you can't hide
Be mine, be mine, War Babies
Be mine, be mine, War Babies
So will the force let go?
Or will the phantoms stay?
Let the foreteller be your sight
- It feels like something's happening today
Some shame's like no other
And nothing feels the same
Nothing feels the same
War Babies
Be mine, be mine, War Babies
Nothing feels the same
War Babies
War Babies
Nothing feels the same
Be mine
Be mine
War Babies
