1000 years war

When the rains came
the streets filled up like rivers
and we floated down um like they were our own
our toxic lungs, oblivious to the sun
we were only, inspired by babies
some nights it was hard, so hard to breathe
in spite of it all, we woke up every morning
In spite of it all, in spite of it all, we woke up everyday
walkin around, so happy and gay
there there on the hill, a man came bearing tidings
with a gun, and a grim look on his face
He said, I, I crossed the river
I heard what they had to say,
and theres no telling when well see the end
I looked at him blankly, I said I dont understand my friend.
He said, Thousands of years and were only a few days in.
thousands of years, thousands of years and were only a few days in
in spite of it all, I wake up every morning
In spite of it all, in spite of it all, he said, I wake up everyday
I wake up cause theres no other way.
I thought it was hard, seeing the man with the earnest face
but there on the hill, someones carrying water
A little boy with a limp, a mother whos been grieving ever since
Grieving ever since, grieving ever since,
GRIEVING, EVER SINCE SHE CAN REMEMBER!
in spite of it all, in spite of it all they wake up every morning
in spite of it all, they wake up everyday
so many flags in the sand, blue and white, greens yellows and reds
dont forget that old red white and blue
what are you fighting for, fighting for a promised land
wandering aroundin the desert sands
when will it ever end? when will it ever end?
more and more people, never, ever more land.
in spite of it all. in spite of it all you keep on shooting your guns, dropping your bombs,
KILLING ANYONE!
in spite of it all in spite of it all
you wake up every morning
in spite of it all, you wake up everyday.
