We all gathered at the station
And waited for the call
No return destination
No need to stand tall
Grey clouds hanging over
Over and out for a while
No you won't see me crying
Crying through this sad smile..
We all need a bit of fire
Icarus he flew to the sun
I've no need of contemplation
When all's said and done
And tell me:
"Why should I fight in another man's war.."
And tell me:
"Why should I fight in another man's war..
Why should I..
Why should I..
And waited for the call
No return destination
No need to stand tall
Grey clouds hanging over
Over and out for a while
No you won't see me crying
Crying through this sad smile..
We all need a bit of fire
Icarus he flew to the sun
I've no need of contemplation
When all's said and done
And tell me:
"Why should I fight in another man's war.."
And tell me:
"Why should I fight in another man's war..
Why should I..
Why should I..

Lyrics & Music by Frank Canonica
"The song is based around a young man leaving for war and conflicts of the heart and mind. I'm not really ever sure what it all completely means, because I don't really consciously write lyrics most of the time. They arrive in my head unsolicited and I try to figure them out later or sometimes just let them be. And to be sure nothing ever happens conveniently. Laying in bed at 3 A.M. things are born.."
