A la Guerre Comme A la Guerre (To War or Not to War?)
À la guerre comme à la guerre — as if war ever played by rules. Love still whispers anyway.
Lyrics
[Intro] To war or not to war… It’s like a joke, isn’t it? But jokes cut deep sometimes. [Verse 1] Some like to claim there’s a “right way” to war, A firm, undisputed sway, But they miss the blood, the endless decay, The madness that haunts every day. “A la guerre comme à la guerre,” they’ll chant, Like it’s dessert after wine, like it’s something grand. The end justifies the means, they’ll say, But oh, how simple they paint the gray. [Chorus] But war knows no rights, No privilege, no pride, no light. Souls torn apart, Worlds ripped from their start. And love, love’s still here, Fighting through the tears, so clear. Peace whispers softly, near, Waiting at the future’s door… [Verse 2] They speak of fatherlands, sacred and pure, But don’t they see? All lands are ours. We share this earth, this fragile bond, And still, we fight... How far have we gone? Chosen by gods, or so they claim, Grinding every day in war’s cruel game. Alien realms hold hearts to mend, While ours crumble… Will this ever end? [Chorus] But war knows no rights, No privilege, no pride, no light. Souls torn apart, Worlds ripped from their start. And love, love’s still here, Fighting through the tears, so clear. Peace whispers softly, near, Waiting at the future’s door… [Bridge] Oh, don’t forget what’s ours, So precious, so tender, Not even a dream, Just a purr of hope, Soft, like a light unseen. [Outro] To war or not to war… Is it a joke? Or just the cruelest truth? Peace is knocking, Will we answer?
