Lyrics (Some lyrics may be wrong)

[Randy]
A battle’s raging in my head
I told myself I wanted you dead
Now I don’t know if I’m sure
If I could hate you anymore

And I don’t know what to go from here
Maybe I’ve been wrong for seventeen years
And I know they see the world one way
It’s only black and white, but never gray

But when that church was burning down
I don’t think I could help them out
You did something that I could never do
But ever since I was a kid, I was told hate your kind
Looking in your eyes I find
It still doesn’t measure up to you

It’s a hopeless war
We’re fighting and we don’t even know what for
The truth is, even in the end and even if you win
It doesn’t change a thing

[Cherry]
The boy I met the other night
Would never take part in this fight
In your eyes I saw a joy
Now all I can see is war

[Randy & Cherry]
But this war it eats your up inside
‘Til you’re blinded by your foolish pride
You say your doing this in Johnny’s name
And for Bob, the Socs do the same

One by one, we fall in line
Same mistakes, a thousand times
Doing what we’ve all been raised to do
Now Johnny’s hurt and Bob has died
When will we be satisfied?
As long as we keep taking sides there’s no way we can override this hopeless war
We’re fighting and we don’t even know what for
The truth is, even in the end and even if you win
It doesn’t change a thing

You’ll still be the losers destined to fail
And we’ll be the lucky ones who’ve got the whole world by the tail
We came to you because we thought you might be the only one who understands

This hopeless war is so completely hopeless in the end
