Life During Wartime
[Verse 1]
I try to forgive
I try to forget
Try not to relive what makes me upset
We all make mistakes
So why not admit them?
I made a mistake
It’s just like the end now

[Chorus]
Life during wartime
Life during wartime
Time-to-reflect time
Time-to-rethink time
Life during wartime

[Verse 2]
I try to forgive
Try not to forget
The things you don’t get you always regret
When times are so rough and people are dyin’
I say that’s enough
Thеre’s no use in lyin’

[Chorus]
Life during wartimе
Life during wartime
Time-to-recoup time
Time-to-be-good time
Life during wartime
[Bridge]
I thought I could change the way that you think
Instead, it’s so strange, I’ve turned you to drink
Why did I roam?
Why did I roam around on my own?
I should’ve stayed home, should’ve stayed home
And thrown out your iPhone, thrown out your iPhone

[Verse 3]
I thought I forgave
I thought I forgot
I tried to be brave
But found I could not
I made a mistake
And now it's all too late
My heart’s full of ache
Is this what is called fate?

[Chorus]
Life during wartime
Life during wartime
Time-to-breath-deep time
Time-to-be-strong time
Life during wartime

[Verse 4]
You cannot forgive
What can’t be forgot
The life that you live
Is that all that you’ve got?
[Chorus]
Life during wartime
Life during wartime
Time-to-breath-deep time
Time-to-be-strong time
Life during wartime

[Verse 5]
You cannot forgive
What can’t be forgot
The life that you live
Is that all that you’ve got?

[Outro]
Life during wartime
