Oh My by The Goldman Brothers Lyrics

A tooth for a tooth and a child for a child
Until there is nobody left alive
And it’s a war of attrition; we all fight for religion, in the name of some vengeful god

When I was a child, I was told, ‘by the time you grow up this war will be long gone’, but
We fucked\messed it up

So now like father like father like son, the apples are falling so close to the tree
And now there’s a green line that separates the good from the bad and a wall that keeps everyone in

But oh my oh my
Those were times of shame and glory
My oh my, we were young and we were holy
My oh my, won't you say that you still love me like you did back then

Now my bedroom rocking like a ship with no sails
I’m headed straight towards the storm
And so I made me a promise, I said never again
And then I went out and I drank some more

It’s a silent count; the lights go out…one, two, three…now here come the drums
But oh my oh my
Those were times of shame and glory
My oh my, we were young and we were holy
My oh my, won't you say that you’ll hold me like you did, like you did…
Those were times of shame and glory
My oh my, we were young and we were holy
My oh my, won't you say that you’ll hold me like you did back then

If there’s a god, I think he’s too late, it’s breaking my heart oh my oh my
He’s chosen his side He made up his mind, and I think we're on the losing end…
