The War Is Over 가사

When I was a young man, I never needed anyone Bruised and broken, shattered, always on the run Safe behind a half-smile, laying in the shadows I became a rich man, I held the world up with my hands Inside I was a poor man, still screaming, I don't understand Why am I always running? Why am I always hiding? What's the point in living when living feels like dying? You can build your walls, love will tear it down You can hide your heart inside a man-made house You can build your walls, build 'em to the sky One day you will find love was on both sides The war is over I came upon a wise man, he said, Sit beside me son When I was a young man, I was like you, the Prodigal Son Safe behind a half-smile, hidin' in the shadows Tell 'em that it's all right, tell 'em 'cause you said so You can build your walls, love will tear it down You can hide your heart inside a man-made house You can build your walls, build 'em to the sky One day you will find love was on both sides The war is over, love's already won The war is over, the war is over The war is over, love's already won The war is over, the war is over Time stands still so long I feel so low I know what follows, what follows You can build your walls, but love will tear it down You can hide your heart inside a man-made house You can build your walls, build 'em to the sky One day you will find love was on both sides The war is over, love's already won The war is over, the war is over The war is over, love's already won The war is over, the war is over
