On the eve of the war,

Will you buy another drink?

On the eve of the war,

Will you ask the barmaid to turn off the TV?

On the eve of the war,

Will you ask your brother to drink with you?

On the eve of the war,

Will you worry about your son?

Like i worry about mine?

On the eve of the war,

Do you think, what the fuck?

On the eve of the war,

Do you worry there will be no tomorrow?

On the eve of the war,

Are you scared of the dark days to come?

On the eve of the war,

Do you care about all the people you have loved?

On the eve of the war,

Are you scared?

On the eve of the war,

Do you think of what might have been?

On the eve of the war,

Can you still love?

On the eve of the war,

Can you still hate?

On the eve of the war,

Does any of this matter?

On the eve of the war,

Only time will tell.
