Kimbra - The Good War Lyrics






We fumbled around
Pushing stones through the mesh
We reap cause we sow
It's a song to the flesh
I had to dream in monochrome
A lie that they've spun
I think I hear heaven calling me home
We're like poised from the sun

Two lives, later I'll find
But everybody's comin round here
Raise arms, I've got a hand to call mine
I'm still out to find my peace of mind

I'm runnin on a heartbeat, I can feel it in my blood flow
Eyes up when they call me, cause we're fighting in the good war
Set me off with a godspeed, then I slam on the backdoor
You and I are gonna die free, cause we're fighting in the good war

We fumble around
We're pushing homes from the nest
We're too far to be found, fighting in the good war
I had to speak in the protocol
I was biting my tongue
Sometimes I hear hell calling me home
It's such a lie that we've spun

I'm runnin on a heartbeat, I can feel it in my blood flow
Eyes up when they call me, cause we're fighting in the good war
Set me off with a godspeed, then I slam on the backdoor
You and I are gonna die free, cause we're fighting in the good war

I'm runnin on a heartbeat, I can feel it in my blood flow
Eyes up when they call me, cause we're fighting in the good war
Set me off with a godspeed, then I slam on the backdoor
You and I are gonna die free, cause we're fighting in the good war

Big lies, we cry, no side of the mind
I rise, you rise, they talk about us, bout us

  1. I.... V....

    This song (as well as many others) is amazing in the acoustic / stripped down live version, and more powerful too... but what’s also amazing is that these versions can coexist and they bring different things

  2. T.... N....

    I just found her watching tv at the gym

  3. P.... ....

    Música lixo

  4. M.... ....

    I can't... she signs "mniam mniam mniam mniam"... which is "nom nom nom nom" in polish.. ARHGH it spoils so much for me XD

  5. C.... E....

    mine started with her sending me her single from NZ at the time when Myspace was a thing. Kimbra, email me! :)

  16. j.... a....

    this is legitimately one of the best pop opening tracks I've heard in the last five years. it's monumental

  17. F.... M....

    i love that she's a bit of a sound chameleon because she does every sound she adventures in right and i feel like i get to catch up with her every album by sound and lyrics as well it's nice and definitely not a bad thing i love that she's not afraid to evolve every album

  18. A.... Z....

    To think my journey started with that girl in the Gotye video.

    A.... Z....

    Dork Born me too! Had to find out who she was. True artistry right here

    A.... Z....

    Dork Born same. When I did find out who she was and listened to her music, it was as if I had stumbled upon a buried treasure chest. Her music has definitely improved the quality of my life. Everything about her. 💖👌😘
