Anybody's War

Icehouse

Her arms around a flag of blue

His clours flying black and white

She hears the voice between the lines

He hears the warning, he turns his black



Anybody's war

Who is there to catch the pieces

Anybody's war

Faces we don't recognise



She catches every last regret

She holds it gently like a dying star

He stands like a small boy in the street

Throwing rocks and stones into the crowd



Anybody's war

Who is there to catch the pieces

Anybody's war

Faces we don't recognise

Anybody's war

Turning round and round in circles

Anybody's war

People just like you and I



Just a little too afraid

To take the blame that they can't hide

Like a frightened child who is running scared

And they know each other well

Through the innocence long gone

Is the only thing they ever shared



She'll promise that she'll try again

He'll promise that he'll settle down

And they will call themselves the best of friends

But still they're strangers, just like anyone



Anybody's war
