It's a War

The moon is full and I'm awake

And I don't know how much I can take

Before I get too angry to be sad

Too many people thinkin' mean

Good ones few and far between

Takin' out on you what they never hadIt's a war, war, war, any more

It's a war, war, war, every day

You've got to keep your guard up

If someone else is hard up

He'll try to steal your dreams awayOnce I thought of compassion as

A feelin' everybody has

Do unto others, that's the golden rule

But I found to my regret

People I had never met

Were out to get me, I was just a foolIt's a war, war, war, any more

It's a war, war, war, every day

You've got to keep your guard up

If someone else is hard up

He'll try to steal your dreams away
