Now we're in trouble - the war without a reason Flags lay in tatters - the end of huntin' season Outside the country is drying up and bleeding I'm in my bedroom trying to fight the noise in my head Cos I don't wanna watch all that I love die I don't wanna burn through a hole in the sky Hey kids, roll up for the new coming attraction k**ing each other will drive us to distraction Fear casts a spell like an allergic reaction I'm in my lounge room trying to make some sense of it All Cos I don't wanna watch all that I love die I don't wanna burn through a hole in the sky To feel a little more than just helplessness Cos now we can agree on one thing We're a mess It's an S.

O. S
