lyrics

Storm came on so quick
We couldn’t run
One minute we were grooving
'Fore we knew it
We were grabbing our guns

The thunder clapped like cannon blasts
The shudders closed
There’s no more laughter now
There’s only you and your own left to worry about
Now that the war is out

Got in my truck and made my way
Back into town
Cautious as a cat burglar
Could barely see the dirt on the ground

I saw the smoke rise from the village square
I felt the fear of man pollute the air
Its time to put it all on the line
Lets see how you do in a dogfight

You got one good shot
You better damn well take it
You gonna throw that fist around
You better pray that it lands
And get yourself ready to dance

Within the hour you find out
You’ve been kidnapped from your crown
I hope there’s not any doubt
It never mattered what came out of your mouth
Now that the war is out

The wind went howling
Louder than a crowd of wolves
I remember staring my breath in the face
As if it were my ghost

Took a heavy drink of everything and
Soldiered down the road
Ain’t no turning away now
There’s nothing left of what I called home

I saw the mountains turn back to the sea
I watched the world I know open up
Beneath my feet
I kept my hands on the wheel
And I showed my teeth

You got one good shot
You better damn well take it
You gonna throw that fist around
You better pray that it lands
And get yourself ready to dance

Within the hour you find out
You’ve been kidnapped from your crown
I hope there’s not any doubt
It never mattered what came out of your mouth
Now that the war is out

By the power vested in me
You’ll be torn apart at the seams
For all the world to see
It’s time you learned about true humility

Within the hour you find out
You’ve been kidnapped from your crown
I hope there’s not any doubt
It never mattered what came out of your mouth
Now that the war is out
