War at Home

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Fallen brother He's a fallen husband He's about to be woken in his hospital bed He doesn't wanna rest He just wants to run And he's tired of being told that he's the lucky one [Verse 2] Caped crusader, she's a new-born leader But you should see her when her daughter's on the phone And she wipes the tears away And she laces up because there's still hell to pay And it sure feels feels like Hell today, today [Chorus] And she says You see these hands? They're bruised and brown They're yours alone Hold on love, we're still going down Hold on, love, we're still fighting at home The war at home [Verse 3] Innocence behind his broken expression He's a child of mercy He's our unlearned lesson And he's trying to wake up from this wilderness His world has now become He's reaching out to those he's running from [Chorus] And he says You see these hands? They're bruised and brown They're yours alone Hold on now, we're still going down Hold on now, we're still fighting [Bridge] And it's (One step forward, two steps back) This is all who are marching (One step forward, two steps back) This is young and old (One step forward, two steps back) Through the void of the silence You are not alone [Outro] You see these hands? They're a million strong They are yours now Hold on now, we're all going down Hold on now, we're all fighting at home The war at home
