Lights out on the street tonight
Walking alone in the fading light
Vague sounds of a distant band
The desperate howls of a one night stand
Thin smile and clenching fist
Scoping tags like sniffing piss
Stay in control as the tension mounts
Magnetic pull from north to south
And I wish I had the resolution
skills to walk away
It never happens quite that way
Do you want to start a war?
Base thump on the stereo
Tongue tied and I want to know
Cut and dried, I`m all cut up
Sting like amphetamines and ready to go
And I wish I had the resolution
skills to walk away
It never happens quite that way
Do you want to start a war?
Do you want to stand up and keep your head held high?
Can you place yourself on the other side?
Do you remember what you`re fighting for?
Do you really want to start a war?
Always searching for some answers or some cigarettes
I`d be happy either way.
Do you want to start a war?
