Staring down the barrel
Of everyday life
Wondering how long the fuse will last
Tensing to dodge
The final bang
Never can

Staring down the barrel
Of everyday life
Wondering how long the fuse will last
Tensing to dodge
The final bang
Never can

Time for the flowers to bloom again
Red
Like blood
That was shed
A century ago
And every day since
One day
They will be white
