I hear the next war coming

The omens always tell me

To sympathise with danger

And to know it’s here to stay

But you can’t go far knowing

It will make you strong and pale

Cross the swamps and bring your sorrow

It will hang on like a tail

Even drama queens and heroes know it

And in my daydreams it strikes hard
And all the voices say

You know now, we’re your shelter

You’ve come back

You’ve come back

You’ve come back …
