AMPHABIAN – “World War III” – Lyrics
There’s a war out there
You can feel it in the air
Everyone is afraid
But fear is getting us nowhere
So many have died
And so many have cried
But still
We all keep looking the other way
Everyone is a victim
Don’t put it out of your head
Follow your heart
Don’t play a part that could kill
You won’t find it in the streets
You won’t find it in the air that you breathe
You won’t find it in the food that you eat
But it’s there
You’ve got to open your eyes
‘Cause there are so many lies
Oh, be safe
‘Cause we want you here next year
You won’t find it in the streets
You won’t find it in the air that you breathe
You won’t find it in the food that you eat
But it’s there
Oh, but it’s there
Today, oh
So you’d better think twice
Before you cross the ice
And have faith
Before it’s too late
And although it seems nice
You have to pay the price
Today, I’m telling you friend, today
Today, today, oh
You won’t find it in the streets
You won’t find it in the air that you breathe
You won’t find it in the food that you eat
But it’s there
Oh, but it’s there
Today, oh
