The War Was In Color

The War Was In Color - Carbon Leaf[00:00:00]

I see you've found a box of my things[00:00:11]

Infantries tanks and smoldering airplane wings[00:00:21]

These old pictures are cool[00:00:32]

Tell me some stories[00:00:34]

Was it like the old war movies[00:00:36]

Sit down son[00:00:41]

Let me fill you in[00:00:44]

Where to begin[00:00:50]

Let's start with the end[00:00:53]

This black and white photo don't capture the skin[00:00:55]

From the flash of a gun to a soldier who's done[00:01:00]

Trust me grandson[00:01:06]

The war was in color[00:01:08]

From shipyard to sea[00:01:31]

From factory to sky[00:01:36]

From rivet to rifle from boot camp to battle cry[00:01:40]

I wore the mask up high on a daylight run[00:01:51]

That held my face in it's clammy hand[00:01:56]

Crawled over coconut logs[00:02:00]

And corpses in the coral sand[00:02:03]

Where to begin let's start with the end[00:02:10]

This black and white photo don't capture the skin[00:02:14]

From the shock of a shell or the memory of smell[00:02:19]

If red is for hell[00:02:25]

The war was in color[00:02:27]

I held the canvas bag over the railing[00:02:34]

The dead released with the ship still sailing[00:02:39]

Out of our hands and into the swallowing sea[00:02:44]

I felt the crossfire stitching up soldiers[00:02:54]

Into a blanket of dead[00:02:58]

And as the night grows colder[00:03:00]

In a window back home[00:03:03]

A blue star is traded for gold[00:03:06]

Where to begin[00:03:12]

Let's start with the end[00:03:15]

This black and white photo don't capture the skin[00:03:17]

When metal is churned[00:03:22]

And bodies are burned[00:03:25]

Victory earned[00:03:27]

The war was in color[00:03:29]

Now I lay in my grave at age 21[00:04:22]

Long before you were born[00:04:29]

Before I bore a son[00:04:33]

What good did it do[00:04:37]

Hopefully for you[00:04:40]

A world without war[00:04:43]

A life full of color[00:04:47]

Where to begin[00:04:50]

Let's start with the end[00:04:53]

This black and white photo never captured my skin[00:04:56]

Once it was torn from an enemy thorn[00:05:02]

Straight through the core[00:05:06]

The war was in color[00:05:09]

Where to begin[00:05:12]

Let's start with the end[00:05:14]

This black and white photo never captured my skin[00:05:16]

From the flash of a gun to a soldier who's done[00:05:22]

Trust me grandson[00:05:27]

The war was in color[00:05:29]

Trust me grandson[00:05:32]

The war was in color[00:05:34]

Trust me grandson[00:05:37]

The war was in color[00:05:42]
