Aloha - All The Wars lyrics

rate me

You're alive

Thanks to a strange chain of events

That started with the death of elvis

And yes,

All the wars and their warriors

Wanted a piece of you

In your living room.

I'm alive

After a time of riots and rides

That ended with smack

Of gates into theirs clasps.

All the dates that they throw at you

Were somebody else's stab

At your lineage.

We're alive

Thanks to a light

Shone in the night

That found an airship in it's sights.

In the crossfire

Your grandfather cried to your mother.

All the bombs that avoided you

Had somebody else's name

Drawn on the chalkboard in haste.

It was a clerical mistake.

When you first saw it you were in a stroller,

Flailing your arms at the dogs and the bees.

They could have bit you but you looked so happy.

They could have snapped but they showed you mercy.

And come to think of it, I never once heard, "no."

From the day you were called you've been walking through the walls.

Shot through a canon, you've landed in a flowerbed.

Guarded by invisible friends.

Guarded and invisible.
