Sleep til the war is over

You say we're better off not knowin'
If we cannot save a life
Somebody said there's a new day a-comin'
Yeah, but it don't feel right
And we'll wear all these scars
Because we got no imagination
And which way these lies
For any feeling we can ever know

All I can do is try to make some sense of all this loss
All I can do is try to live my life

But I don't wanna dance
I don't wanna sing
I just wanna sleep til the war is over
I don't wanna lose everything, no
I just wanna sleep til the war is over
The war is over.
Oh but it ain't over

You say you judge them by their color
But what you cannot say is why
Is it too hard just to love one another
Where do we take this life
And we'll wear all these scars
They say they got no destination
And from where we are
It seems we're never gonna make it home

And all I can do is try to make some sense of all this loss
All I can do is try to live my life

But I don't wanna dance
I don't wanna sing
I just wanna sleep til the war is over
I don't wanna lose everything, no
I just wanna sleep til the war is over

I don't wanna dance
I don't wanna sing
I just wanna sleep til the war is over
I don't wanna lose everything, no
I just wanna sleep til the war is, sleep til the war is over

All I can do is try to make some sense of all this loss
All I can do is try to close my eyes

'Cause I don't wanna dance
I don't wanna sing
I just wanna sleep til the war is over
I don't wanna lose everything, no
I just wanna sleep til the war is over
I don't wanna dance
I don't wanna sing
Hell, I just wanna sleep til the war is over
I don't wanna lose everything, no
I just wanna sleep til the war is over, the war is over
