Winning A War Lyrics & Chords By Pain Of Salvation

Once there was a world out on these fields that was untouched
Grateful for its love we thanked the earth that gave so much
And oh, I loved it so

Once there was a pair of eyes, unbroken just like my heart
Belonging to a father and his son, now torn apart
And oh, I loved him so

Why, mommy?
Tell me why daddy is walking away
Leaving me

I remember birds of pray, dark shadows piercing the ground
Faceless men came shouting about a pride to which we were bound
And oh, I searched for him so

Faith darling, have faith my son
Your daddy is winning a war
For you

Daddy need me, love and lead me
Your superseding war won't feed me

Watch fathers and sons pale cling to their guns
Marching line by line leaving reason behind
Their eyes now tensed with fear, enemies are near
But all armies are only fathers and sons

(Earth bleeding through their proceeding)
(All greedy voltures are needing)
War! War!
Dad, who is winning a war?
And dad, who is it for?
I won't shed a tear, I won't show no fear!
Won't disappoint you dad (All greedy voltures need war)
I won't miss you dad

I'll shut down

But daddy, I miss you so

And I need you here
Dad I'm alone here and
Daddy, I'm losing your war out here
(Daddy need me, love and lead me)
Your superseding war won't feed me
