This Uncivil War Lyrics

	作词 : Peters
	Lyrics：Gretchen Peters
	Music：Gretchen Peters
	There's a silence on the front lines
	You can cut it with a knife
	You can stay and take your chances
	Or you can run to save your life
	One side is retreating
	And the other's runnin' scared
	And the drums of war are beating
	Even though it's undeclared.
	Chorus:
	And both sides say they're winning
	And both sides know they're losing
	And neither one knows what they're fightin' for
	And in the quiet little places
	You can see the little faces
	Huddled right outside the bedroom door
	Praying for an end to this uncivil war.
	Papa needs a new job
	So he's swallowing his pride
	Oh, but it don't go down easy
	And it eats him up inside
	And Mama, she don't notice
	Little sister's ragged dress
	Lately she don't notice
	Much of anything I guess
	Chorus:
	They're just fightin' off the hunger
	Trying to keep from going under
	But the wolves just keep on
	Gatherin' 'round the door
	There's no place to run for cover
	So they're turning on each other
	'Cause there really ain't no winners anymore
	Just victims in this uncivil war.
	There's a silence on the front lines
	You can cut it with a knife
	You can stay and take your chances
	Or you can run to save your life
