lyrics

[Verse 1]

So where, where we gonna…
gonna go from here?
That carbon clock’s a tickin’
Tickin’ tock, just give me one more year.
Now’s not the time, we’ll all be fine…
Move along now child, nothing to see here.
Pour a drink, grab a beer,
drown that sorrow, bury deep the fear.

[Chorus]

Man might win the battle,
but we’ll never win this war.

Man might win the battle,
but we’ll never win this war.

[Verse 2]

The winds of yesterday have blown
far far away.
The sunrise of tomorrow
comes each and every single day.

Chop the wood for your fire,
it will warm you twice, they say.
Call me crazy I just cannot
see things any other way.

[Chorus]

Man might win the battle,
but we’ll never win this war.

Man might win the battle,
but we’ll never win this war.

[Verse 3]

Morally divided, never compromise
the truth.
Ego tossed aside realize
the answer’s in the youth.
Confidence inside,
compassionately rise… Be the Proof.
Conscientiously reside,
axe to the grind… Be the Proof.

[Chorus]

Man might win the battle,
but we’ll never win this war.

Man might win the battle,
but we’ll never win this war.

Man might win the battle,
but we’ll never win this war.

Man might win the battle,
but we’ll never win this war alone.
