Lyrics

About a girl, she ran away
From the war out her front door, with a baby on the way
And she drives through the night
Didn’t have to be this way

Our life’s a tragedy, for the whole world to see
Sit back and watch as the sky is falling
Our life’s a tragedy, for the whole world to see
Sit back and watch as the sky is falling

About a boy, he had to stay
Might not see tomorrow, might be a man someday
And he fights, knows he’s right
Didn’t have to be this way

Our life’s a tragedy, for the whole world to see
Sit back and watch as the sky is falling
Our life’s a tragedy, for the whole world to see
Sit back and watch as the sky is falling

It’s now or never
And he fights, knows he’s right
Didn’t have to be this way

Our life’s a tragedy, for the whole world to see
Sit back and watch as the sky is falling
Sit back and watch as the sky is falling
