Danger Mouse & Sparklehorse feat. Gruff Rhys Lyrics
"Just War"

All ancient towers
Will one day crumble into the sea
Defaced by armies
Intent on rendering obsolete

Just war, just war
You said it wouldn't hurt
Just war, just war

Is this just war?
Is this just war?
The last survivor crawling through the dust
And furthermore
Will evolution diminish right in front of us?

Late September
I heard the siren call a truce
But by December
My head returned into the noose

Just war, just war
You said it wouldn't hurt
Goodbye, sleep tight
Cause surely, it's ain't just war

The last survivor crawling through the dust
And furthermore
Will evolution diminish right in front of us?
There is just war

The last survivor crawling through the dust
There is just war
A contribution till humankind
Turns to rust
