Lyrics

[00:17.44] All is fair in love and we're in love
[00:23.94] Now that everybody's dead we can finally talk
[00:30.90] Can vanity and happiness co-exist?
[00:37.65] All the lovers we've taken in direct view of the enemy
[00:44.52] And we shift each others body to accept the bullet
[00:51.16] And continue the pleasure, the treasures of battle
[00:57.78] Its only for the for the wounded and purple hearted
[01:05.50] Why must you try to ruin my peace of mind
[01:11.59] And they were only words and I never meant them
[01:18.71] I never loved you even in my weakness you were fuel for the fire cannon fodder
[01:46.25] When my grampa drank, fell and broke his face in two
[01:52.96] When the cops arrived he exclaimed i fought in world war two
[01:59.47] And then they carried him to a darkened hospital room
[02:06.32] And said no modern person here remembers you
[02:13.14] And we can't identify the enemy
[02:16.83] And it could be you so it'll cost you
[02:23.52] It already cost me my wife and my job now what
[02:27.80] Then my mom and I went to identify the body
[02:34.01] And I wanted to see it but she wouldn't let me
[02:40.57] I had to wait for the military cemetary
[02:44.79] And when we got there, this is what she said to me
[02:55.09] Love and war in heaven and in hell
[03:02.63] You get what you deserve you better spend it well
[03:08.95] All is fair in love and war and love
[03:15.16] Civil war like this, it always sells itself
[03:19.58]
