The War I Survived - Hawkwind

Death comes like a ???

in the midst of all wars

Reason and logic, the generals cry «more»

Bodies in gullies, contortionate poses

Caught by the same time, as the guns and roses

Take me back to the war I survived

I can’t live no more, this is slaughterhouse five

Take me back to the war I survived

I can’t live no more, this is slaughterhouse five

Nice business guns, bombs to the haloed Moon

Trust this landscape to the barren gloom

A bulletproof Bible can protect your heart

It’ll cover your eyes when you’re falling apart

Take me back to the war I survived

I can’t live no more, this is slaughterhouse five

Take me back to the war I survived

I can’t live no more, this is slaughterhouse five

???

rise higher for the martyrs ???

???

freedom for unprovoked attack

Get in there and use them, the shatter???

bomb

Armies create circles, sparks for the dawn

Take me back to the war I survived

I can’t live no more, this is slaughterhouse five

Take me back to the war I survived

I can’t live no more, this is slaughterhouse five

There’s only bombs, nobody’s left alive

Take me back to the war I survived

These were people like you and I

Take me back to the war I survived
