lyrics

call off the armies, take the middle man off the lines; he ain't doing so good these days. standing with his rifle staring into the eyes of god, he ain't doin' so well fighting. take some time, leave it all out in the pine, leave the fence posts to the cold ground. focus now on bettering yourself, so when the fog of war comes - you can face it.

i want to celebrate you.

go on back to basics, find that humour in your grin. the mask you paint these days is serious. i see you battling your demons in the day, they rage and twist behind your smile. those who know might see you squirming in your bones, or hiding out between the chatter.

i want to celebrate you. come on man let's celebrate... celebrate you.

you said 'it takes one to know one, man you know ive got it bad, a case of burning with the poets'. i've been the last to admit to my mistakes and the first to let them happen. apples to oranges and pears to lemon tree's; it all tastes sweet, put it together.

i want to celebrate you. come on man let's celebrate... celebrate you.
