One of the singles from the album, “The War” is about the Iraq war and toll it’s taken on both sides.
With a simple but catchy guitar riff that instantly draws you in, Delonge breaks into a powerful chorus that will leave you humming the song in you’re head.
Watch below for a look in the studio as...
[Verse 1]
The ocean is on fire
The sky turned dark again as the boats came in
And the beaches, stretched out with soldiers
With their arms and guns, it has just begun
[Pre-Chorus]
Believe, you want this
Believe, I want this too
[Chorus]
Why won't you tell me that it's almost over?
Why must this tear my head inside out?
[Verse 2]
And the houses, laid out like targets
With the deafening sound, we watched them all go down
And the families, now useless bodies
They lay still black and blue, a gift from us to you
[Pre-Chorus]
Believe, you want this?
Believe, do I want this too?
[Chorus]
Why won't you tell me that it's almost over?
Why must this tear my head inside out?
[Bridge]
Oh oh oh, oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh (Believe)
Oh oh oh, oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh (Believe, you want this too)
Oh oh oh, oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh
[Chorus]
Why won't you tell me that it's almost over?
Why must this tear my head inside out?
Why won't you tell me that it's almost over?
Why must this tear my head inside out?
[Outro]
Oh oh oh, oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh
