Sleep till the war is over Lyrics by Rob Thomas
You say we’re better off not knowing
if we cannot save a life
somebody said there’s a new day coming
however it don’t feel right
and we 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 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…
