Communication Breakdown Lyrics - Singles - Craig Herbertson

We shot him in the morning 

The youngest kid in the war 

Propaganda said deserter 

The soldier boys werent sure 

I had to phone somebody close to me 

To talk these scenes from out of my head 

When I got through to you 

You had something to do 

And you couldnt hear a word I said 

In our communication breakdown 

Somewhere on the line 

Communication breakdown 

I think Im going out of my mind 

War declared on America 

They say our boys are fighting back 

Theres some talk around about a victory 

But who gives a damn about that 

Well steal a couple of guns 

And shoot our way through the crowd 

Sink a drink and fall in bed 

And make beautiful love 

Until the lights go out 

And the radio goes dead 

In the tallest tall building 

Ill meet you when theyre gone 

And well watch through broken windows 

For the soldiers coming home 

Dont tell them where youre going 

The corpses on the street 

They wont listen to your stories 

But theyll see when I fall at your feet
