we all love American girls when they"re dreaming
and everyone enjoys their lives
lovers chase the rain with an empty water can
and diligence shuts their eyes
we gotta finish our boats now before the tide comes in
what a pleasant distraction from the outcome
of this world that we live in

this is our war, so don"t lose it
this is our only chance, so don"t let it pass
through your eyes there"s a choir singing
da da da da da da da
this is our war, so don"t lose it
this is our second chance, so don"t let it pass
through your eyes there"s a choir singing
da da da da da da da
this is our war

we all love kids who can play in the cities
and how no one could feel more alive
trading off toys for sun glasses that can
cover another black eye
we gotta finish our drinks now before the tide comes in
what a pleasant distraction from the outcome
of these cities we lived in

battling is bound to leave blood on the ground
this war is a choir and this choir has a sound
da da da da da da da
