Katushka ft John Pulzer What War Stole

[Intro with loud angry voice ] Do you have nothing better to do? When politics ruins the people, there is always war and everyone sweeps the garbage under the carpet. [Verse] If we counted the coins The blood The tears What we traded for fire and fear We'd see the stars we could have touched But instead We stayed here Building crutch after crutch [Chorus] A moon base No problem Mars City No problem Cures for the heartache For the pain But war stole the dreams again and again [Verse 2] If we measured the weight of every lost chance Stacked it higher than the rockets that never advanced We'd see the bridges we could have built Instead of digging trenches deep with guilt [Prechorus] What could have been What should have been Lost in the smoke The deafening din [Chorus] A moon base No problem Mars City No problem Healing the broken Healing the blind But war took the future Left us behind [Bridge] Imagine no battles No lines in the sand Just hands reaching out Hand in hand The universe waiting Its doors wide open But we chose destruction Dreams left unspoken [Chorus] A moon base No problem Mars City No problem Healing the broken Healing the blind But war took the future Left us behind [Verse 3] If we held a mirror to our scars Traded tanks for cures For stars The cost of peace would seem so small [Bridge] Diseases crumble Towers rise No tears to cloud the children’s eyes A city on Mars A world that thrives If only we chose different lives [Prechorus Spoken Words] What could have been What should have been Lost in the smoke The deafening din [Chorus and outro] What could we build What could we grow If the seeds of war we didn’t sow No weapons No graves No endless fight Just hands to hold Just stars at night
