Bayside - It's Not A Bad Little War lyrics

I had a place to live in
I had a job worth quitting
I had some things I had to chase
Mistakes but we all make them
We celebrate being young
I had the chance to run away
And I wish upon a satellite
That wrong can turn to right, believe me

That we are, our only chance in the world
If faith should fail us then
Hope will see us through
And we are, our only chance in the world
So stand for something
'cause something's overdue
And I don't ask for much
But this could define a lifetime
At dead men's hands we are the
Only friends we ever had

They called it education
I saw a means to an end
I saw my life another way
To live and die a king I thought there
Could be worse fates to land upon
And I'd go back home when it
All blew up in my face
And I wish upon a satellite
That wrong can turn to right, believe me

That we are, our only chance in the world
If faith should fail us then
Hope will see us through
And we are, our only chance in the world
So stand for something
'cause something's overdue
And I don't ask for much
But this could define a lifetime
At dead men's hands we are the
Only friends we ever had

You need a map to see how far
I was sticking out my neck
We all have things that we all second guess
And fears of being ordinary

And I wish upon a satellite
That wrong can turn to right, believe me

That we are, our only chance in the world
If faith should fail us then
Hope will see us through
That we are, our only chance in the world
So stand for something
'cause something's overdue
And I don't ask for much
But this could define a lifetime
At dead men's hands we are the
Only friends we ever had

At dead men's hands we are the
Only friends we ever had
