Post-war Blues Lyrics - Oh Fortune - Dan Mangan

Let's start a war for the kids 

A purpose for which to unite 

Make them some words they can mince 

What they don't know 

They won't mind 

Find them a foe for the fight 

And stories to tell as they age 

Then maybe time will decide 

Which ones keep and which ones fade

There's the deepest sleep in my blood 

From which I am slowly coming to 

And every morning i wait for the news 

Oh, this is, 

This is post war blues 

Make me a means to an end 

Make me an ending in sight 

Make me insightful again 

What I can't see 

I can't fight 

Make me a fire to burn 

Burn all the letter I wrote 

Write me a list of concerns 

If we are at peace 

If we are at peace 

I wanna know 

Photos 

There's the deepest sleep in my blood 

From which I am slowly coming to 

And every morning I wait for the news 

Oh, this is 

This is post war blues 

Oh, this is 

This is post war blues
