Post-War Blues lyrics

Let's start a war for the kids

A purpose for which to unite

Make them some words they can mince

What they don't know

They won't mind

Find them a foe for the fight

And stories to tell as they age

Then maybe time will decide

Which ones keep and which ones fade

There's the deepest sleep in my blood

From which I am slowly coming to

And every morning I wait for the news

Oh, this is

This is post war blues

Make me a means to an end

Make me an ending in sight

Make me insightful again

What I can't see

I can't fight

Make me a fire to burn

Burn all the letter I wrote

Write me a list of concerns

If we are at peace

If we are at peace

I wanna know

There's the deepest sleep in my blood

From which I am slowly coming to

And every morning I wait for the news

Oh, this is

This is post war blues

Oh, this is

This is post war blues
