- - ] x4
Come the war, come the avarice
Come the war, come how?
Come attrition, come the reek of bones
Come attrition, come how?
This is why, why we fight, why we lie awake
This is why, this is why we fight
And when we die, we will die, with our arms unbound
This is why, this is why we fight, come how?
Right of quiet, writer on quiet vein
Right of quiet, right of how
Come the arches, come the infant cheek
Come the arches of how
This is why, why we fight, why we lie awake
This is why, this is why we fight
And when we die, we will die, with our arms unbound
This is why, this is why we fight, come how, come how?
- - ] x4
This is why, why we fight, why we lie awake
This is why, this is why we fight
And when we die, we will die, with our arms unbound
This is why, this is why we fight
So come to me, come to me now
Lay your arms around me
This is why, this is why we fight
Come how, come how, come how, come how?
