When The War Came - The Decemberists[00:00:01]
Written by:Colin Meloy[00:00:02]
With all the grain of Babylon[00:00:16]
To cultivate to make us strong[00:00:23]
And hidden here behind the walls[00:00:29]
Are shoulders wide and timber on[00:00:35]
'Til the war came[00:00:42]
'Til the war came[00:00:48]
A terrible autonomy[00:00:55]
Has grafted onto you and me[00:01:01]
Our trust put in the government[00:01:08]
They told their lies as heaven sent[00:01:14]
'Til the war came[00:01:21]
'Til the war came[00:01:27]
And the war came with a curse and a caterwaul[00:01:33]
And the war came with all the poise of a cannonball[00:01:40]
And they're picking out our eyes by coal and candlelight[00:01:48]
When the war came the war came hard[00:01:56]
We made our oath to vavilov[00:02:08]
We'd not betray the solanum[00:02:14]
The acres of asteraceae[00:02:21]
To our own pangs of starvation[00:02:27]
When the war came[00:02:34]
When the war came[00:02:39]
And the war came with a curse and a caterwaul[00:02:45]
And the war came with all the poise of a cannonball[00:02:53]
And they're picking out our eyes by coal and candlelight[00:03:01]
When the war came the war came hard[00:03:09]
With all the grain of Babylon[00:04:18]
With all the grain of Babylon[00:04:24]
With all the grain of Babylon[00:04:30]
With all the grain of Babylon[00:04:36]
With all the grain of Babylon[00:04:42]
With all the grain of Babylon[00:04:47]
With all the grain of Babylon[00:04:54]
With all the grain of Babylon[00:04:59]
