‘This is War’ is part of the expanded deluxe version of “Black and White Rainbows” released in November 2017. It talks about the feeling of war brought by the neo-nazi riots in Charlottesville and what it represents to society as a whole.
If you can see me
You can save my skin
I could trust you
If you could see me within
Is this the way you see yourself?
Is this the way you've never been wrong?
Is this the way you work yourself?
Is this the way you come undone?
Is this the way you see yourself?
Is this the way you've never been wrong?
Is this the way you hurt yourself?
Is this the way you come undone?
This is war
This is the strange fruit
This is the end of me
This is the end of you
This is war
This is war
If you can free your mind
If you could loose the chains that chain
If you could walk through the mine fields of history
What we came to be
Is this the way you see yourself?
Is this the way you've never been wrong?
Is this the way you hurt yourself?
Is this the way you come undone?
This is war
This is the strange fruit
This is the end of me
This is the end of you
This is war
This'll be televised
This is how we live
This is how we die
This is war
This is war
No
They can try to break you down
Water beats rocks
They can try to break you down
Water beats rocks
They can try to break you down
Water beats rocks
They can try to break you down
This is war
This is the strange fruit
This is the end of me
This is the end of you
This is war
This'll be televised
This is how we live
This is how we die
No more war
This is how we die
No more war
This is how we die
This is how we die
This is war
This is war
This is war
This is war
