lyrics
The air hangs heavy with the bitter taste of sentiment
Plans for tomorrow, final glances
She’s been around, smiles and parting words
One thing to count on, dawn will rise
Drifting off to sleep on her cardboard floor
Memories and friendships in the middle of a war
Battle’s almost over, war’s just begun
She wrote her wishes on the cold hard ground
Watched as their prayers drifted into the sky
They go out of focus
Stars are in the glass around
Drifting off to sleep on her cardboard floor
Memories and friendships in the middle of a war
Battle’s almost over, war’s just begun
Life, oh life, life on the road
Plans for tomorrow, final glances
She’s been around, smiles and parting words
One thing to count on, dawn will rise
Drifting off to sleep on her cardboard floor
Memories and friendships in the middle of a war
Battle’s almost over, war’s just begun
She wrote her wishes on the cold hard ground
Watched as their prayers drifted into the sky
They go out of focus
Stars are in the glass around
Drifting off to sleep on her cardboard floor
Memories and friendships in the middle of a war
Battle’s almost over, war’s just begun
Life, oh life, life on the road
