Standing on the edge of
the palisades cliffs
In the shadow of the
skyline very far away
A lightning rod that couldnt
pull the storm from me
I was 5 years old my best
friends older brother died
He fell from these cliffs
The river washed him away the
current pulled him downstream
And our lives float in the
headlines so we parked
these cars Parents garage
Listen to the lullaby
Of Carbon Monoxide
War all of the time
In the shadow of the New York skyline
We grew up too fast falling apart
Like the ashes of American flags
The sun doesnt rise
We replaced it with
an h-bomb explosion
A painted jail cell of blood in
the sky like Three Mile Island
Nightmares on TV they
used to sing us to sleep
They burn on and on like an oil field
Or a memory of what it felt like
To burn on and on and not just fade away
All those nights in the basement
the kids are still screaming
(Hold)
On and on and on and on
War all of the time
In the shadow of the New York skyline
We grew up too fast falling apart
Like the ashes of American flags
And were blowing in the wind
We dont know where to land
So we kiss like little kids
We used to be very tall buildings
Weve been falling for so long
Now your eyes follow the
sign on the edge of town
They offer a welcome
when you are leaving
(Repeat Chorus 2)
The pieces fall its
like a last day parade
And the fires in our
streets start to rage
so wave, to the people
that long to wave back
from the fabric of a flag
that sang "love all of the time"
F--Am--
War all the time
War all the time
All of the time
War all the time
War all the time
All of the time
All of the time
War all of the time
War all of the time
War all of the time
all of the time
