I want to help you; I don’t know how,
Your daddy left you in some hell house now,
Life is war, baby,
Life is war.
I want to make it so you sleep at night,
I want to fill your dreams with party lights,
That’s for sure, baby,
That’s for sure.
Life is war, that’s for sure.
We need compassion every day,
We need to know we’re not alone when we pray,
Life is war, life is war,
You pick any door now,
Life is war.
But can you hear me calling to you far away?
I’m trying to tell you that there’s hope today,
And, baby, you don’t need to measure up to get a shot of love in that empty cup,
And, like a cool hand on a fevered brow, let me whisper words of life to you now,
It’s hard to get relief, but the truth is real and we can live in peace out of the battlefield.
Wait for the one who left an empty tomb,
He’s gonna meet you in your secret room,
Life is here – listen, baby,
Life is here – listen, baby,
Now don’t you disappear on me now,
Life is here.
