Another Day Lyrics

Another Day by Taskforce

• Welcome to the otherside of happiness and lullabys
• where tiny mercenary eyes smoulder from the gutters life
• the glow of dying glory in the embers of a mothers pride
• cause Nathan was a loving child until his older brother died
• see he was sitting eating porridge when the soldiers come
• to tell his aging mum she had outlived her oldest son
• and now she wept they said your son had died a hero's death
• they took a nervous breath both saluted turned around and left
• now Nathans heart is filled with hatred for Afghanistan
• along with every muslim 'cause he thinks they're all the Taliban
• While from a mountain home another child without a name
• is waiting for her father with some food and neither ever came
• her father died from a bullet wound a mile away
• he died without a weapon while the guilty fled to hide in caves
• its just another life, sadly its another day
• that left a little girl with only martyrdom to pave her way
• she grew with clerics filled with hatred as her ruling guide
• and trained her in explosives for a homocidal suicide
• there is no moral to a story that was bred at war
• and all there is to say im sure at some points all been said before
• its just another life, sadly just another day
• and sadder still another just the same is never far away
• its just another life and sadly just another day
• and sadder still another just the same is never far away

• we live, we die, thats life, i guess
• there's war, famine, hate and death
• there's them, there's us, there's you, there's me
• we live, we die, we rarely free
• but love exists in strength in mind
• and all good things will come with time
• so raise your fists, and sing with me
• i'm god, i'm strong, i'm proud, i'm free

• welcome to the otherside of happiness and lullabys
• where people cast their sleepy eyes focused on the world outside
• overlooking power struggles that they hear inside
• and constantly remain in self denial as their world divides
• now Pratrick visits dad at the cemetary
• who was killed as he was marching through the town of Derry
• and generations of his family have also suffered
• another loss of bloody sunday that they wont recover
• all this dying for relgion and its politics
• had Patrick at the bar getting drunk saying "fuck the English"
• then somewhere in a London estate
• Terrry hates the Irish and thinks they all support the IRA
• cause back in '92 his little sister passed away
• a bomb inside a van that took her life and he cant take the pain
• he wants to die and take her place but he knows he cant
• so now he's filled with hate and loves to fight given any chance
• and these are families from 2 different nations
• related by their grief, pain and frustrations
• its always hard to heal the wounds that were caused by war
• when its difficult to understand what we're fighting for
• its just another life, sadly just another day
• and sadder still another just the same is never far away
• its just another life and sadly just another day
• and sadder still another just the same is never far away

• we live, we die, thats life, i guess
• there's war, famine, hate and death
• there's them, there's us, there's you, there's me
• we live, we die, we rarely free
• but love exists in strength in mind
• and all good things will come with time
• so raise your fists and sing with me
• i'm god, i'm strong, i'm proud, i'm free
