lyrics

There's fall on the wind
Don't call me your friend
I'll tell you again
There is a war
There is a war

So pour me a drink
It's not what you think
I'll call up my shrink
It's always a war
There is a war
Inside

Don't fight a war for love
If you don't know who the enemy is
Just fight the war of grief
With no enemy but loneliness

I have never been a soldier
I'm just hiding in the scene
When I'm drunk or when I'm sober
You know my enemy's still me

She was unlike any other
Any dream I can conceive
I first had her in a bathroom
These things just end in misery

Won't try again when we are older
We've had our time between those sheets
Somebody else will be her lover
Maybe they'll make her happy
Like I could not

There's fall on the wind
Don't call me your friend
I'll tell you again
There is a war
There's always a war
Inside
