Lyrics: (UNOFFICIAL)
When the war is over,
Is it ever over?
With the bodies we left,
And the tears that we wept,
Hanging over our shoulder?

When the war is over,
Is it ever over?
Scars that tell of the days,
Roses marking the graves,
While the ashes still smolder.

Can the world begin again?
Can we fly away and pretend,
That all of the lives that we've wreaked,
And the ships that we left out at sea,
Can make their way back home?

When the war is over,
Is it ever over?
When the fire that we lit,
And the pride that we knit,
Rages on at our boarders?

When the war is over,
Is it ever over?
Will we lay down our arms?
Will we sound the alarms?
Will we ever be sober?

Can the world begin again?
Can we fly away and pretend,
That all of the lives that we've wreaked,
And the ships that we left out at sea,
Can make their way back home?

When the war is over,
Is it ever over?
With the bodies we left,
And the tears that we wept,
Hanging over our shoulder?
