Lyrics

[00:41.39] Home and done it's just begun
[00:48.82] His heart weighs more, more than it ever did before
[00:59.79] What has he done? God help my son
[01:07.52] Hey,stay a while,l'll stay up
[01:17.01] No sugar is enough to bring sweetness to his cup
[01:25.77] I know sorrow tastes the same on any tongue
[01:57.30] How was I to feel it
[02:01.94] When a gun was in my hands
[02:06.24] And l'd waited for so long
[02:16.85] How was I to see straight
[02:21.41] In the dust and blinding sun
[02:25.71] Just a pair of boots on the ground
[02:39.11] On the screen the young men die
[02:45.88] The children cry in the rubble of their lives
[02:57.66] What has he done? God help my son
[03:04.94] Hey,stay a while,I'll stay up
[03:14.39] The volume pumped right up but not enough to drown it out
[03:22.76] I hear "Mama" sounds the same in any tongue
[03:54.85] How am I to see you
[03:59.31] When my faith stands in the way
[04:03.62] And the wailing is long done
[04:13.26] How am I to know you
[04:17.76] With a joystick in my hand
[04:23.14] When the call to arms has come
