Drink Before the War Sinéad O'Connor

[Verse 1]
Well, you tell us that we're wrong
And you tell us not to sing our song
Nothing we can say will make you see
You got a heart of stone you can never feel

[Pre-Chorus]
You say, "Oh, I'm not afraid, it can't happen to me
I've lived my life as a good man
Oh no, you're out of your mind, it won't happen to me
'Cause I've carried my weight and I've been a strong man"

[Chorus]
Listen to the man in the liquor store
Yelling, "Anybody want a drink before the war?"

[Verse 2]
And your parents paid you through
You got a nice big car, nothing bothers you
Somebody cut out your eyes, you refuse to see, ah
Somebody cut out your heart, you refuse to feel
And you live in a shell, you create your own hell
You live in the past and talk about war
And you dig your own grave, yeah, but it's a life you can save, oh
So stop getting fussed, it's not gonna happen
And you'll cry, but you'll never fall, no, no, no, you're building a wall
Gotta break it down, start again
