give up the war lyrics

I read what they write
God's men of before
It's simply that I am still afraid
To give up the war
I've played all the chords
And I guess I get bored
I want to do it right
Be someone like Paul
It's simply that he was not afraid
He never gave up the war

And live when you're down
And live when you're always leaving
I want to be things
Always living
Pressing on

I know what they saw
And I know there's the law
It's simply that I am still afraid
I want to give up the war
I've played all the chords
It doesn't matter at all

And live when you're down
And live when you're always leaving
I want to be things
Always living
Pressing on

Always leaving
I want to be things
Always living
Pressing on
I want to be things
