lyrics

You'd already claimed the hilltop
As I lay asleep
At the bottom dreaming like the dead
You were wide awake
Sharpening your tongue like a bayonet
Waiting for the perfect moment
Waiting...

Well, good morning war

Sleep in my eyes as you stormed the foot of my bed (as a shore)
The tanks had already rolled up
(what a dirty trick)
Aim to fire
I wasn't ready for any of it

Well, good morning, war.
Sonnets of napalm laying on the floor

So I woke up to the crash of words
A barrage of bombs that killed this calm
No chance for defense, I'd never been armed.

Well, good morning war.
