So the air's getting colder And the news keeps us scared We still wrestle this summer From the bones of our tired and blistered hands 'Cause tonight we got drinks And just a couple of friends And the girl that my brother likes is finally talking to him And his chest is all swelled like he's proud and happy Like he's got a great idea Like he's making a memory Wake up and come out to the car There's an east swell coming And it's howling off shore and we'll be Lying like lions out in the sands But I'll be dead before you put a gun in my brother's hands So we make jokes back at home And we lighten the mood But growing up my parents saw What sending a kid to fight can really do Now with the war I can tell they're a little shook up 'Cause just a few mother's sons will never really be enough Not 'til half of our names are etched out in a wall And the other half ruined from the things we saw Wake up and come out to the car There's an east swell coming And it's howling off shore and we'll be Lying like lions out in the sands But I'll be dead before you put a gun in my brother's hands Wake up and come out to the car There's an east swell coming And it's howling off shore and we'll be Lying like lions out in the sands But I'll be dead before you put a gun in my brother's hands Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
