Lyrics

Have you not heard? The war is over It was only the colour of the flag died It turns out every flag looks the same Least to dead men and women and children And it's been soaked in the blood that they paid Have you not heard? The war is over You know, they found an old man in the jungle Still fighting in World War II He alone believed it wasn't over Now, do you think that could mean it was true? Have you not heard? The war is over They say, "War is a state of illusion Just made up to remind us we're free They didn't really gas those children in Syria No, it was only a thing for TV" Have you not heard? The war is over The word "border"'s a man-made invention Mother Nature would not make those things She makes beautiful mountains and rivers Things that can't be dreamed up by a king Have you not heard? The war is over Must have been there was really a Jesus 'Cause millions died in his word and his name Turns out no one recorded him talkin' And there's no one alive they can blame Have you not heard? The war is over They found this new thing called peace It turns out there was really no difference No difference at all, between you and me
