Must I go
Must I stay
What's new now
A train smash
Like before
Who needs that
What can war
Do for me
This isn't a practice run
You die you're dead
Can they talk it over
My family knows no gun
They never even been outside
their small town house yard
Can I tag along
And enjoy the freebies
What you defeated you keep
Can you own another country
Can I kill
My God I can't
Is war fair
Ok all is fair
In love and war
Did I start any war
Rumours of the war
I'm sleeping
Thunderous clouds
Bombing my sleep
My living situation
Is distorted, disturbed
Cries of pain start
I'm a prisoner of war
Like Jews in a war camp
I'm starved of humanity
Raped of my dignity
Where's my dad
My kid wants to know
She's with strangers
In an unknown camp
Are soldiers of war proud
When I'm strapped of my dignity
Tell me teacher
What is war
My father told me
As a child, fighting is bad
Isn't war fighting
Even rumours of war
Are scary, I was six
I'm a girl in a gun shop now
Must I buy myself a gun
