Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. - War Zone Lyrics


Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. – War Zone Lyrics

And when I woke up I was in a war zone
Just sorting through all of this propaganda
I close my eyes again, it all came seeping in
I wondered if I’d left my things in order

It seemed so different than I’d pictured in my head
Everyone fighting looked exactly like me
The ground was shaking so I found a fox hole
And I stayed there for an entire weekend
I’ve been waiting too long, I don’t wanna be carryin’ it no more
I’ve been waiting too long, I don’t wanna be carryin’ it no more

At first I tried to run in each direction
Between the concrete and the other wreckage
Then the next morning there was nothing here
And we figured that the battle must have moved on
I’ve been wanting too long, I don’t wanna be carryin’ it no more
I’ve been wanting too long, I don’t wanna be carryin’ it no more
I don’t wanna be carryin’ it no more

Then when I woke up I was in a war zone
I was surprised to find a gun beside my feet
The handle fit just right, my eye was on the sight
And I was feeling like it can’t be that easy

I don’t wanna be carryin’ it no more
But we’re gonna wait so long
Yeah we’re gonna wait so long
Yeah we’re gonna wait so long
Yeah we’re gonna wait so long

Your heart beats faster
I’m trying to figure out if I should shoot or not
Your heart beats faster
I’m trying to figure out if I should shoot or not
Your heart beats faster
I’m trying to figure out if I should shoot or not
Your heart beats faster
I’m trying to figure out if I should shoot or not

    I’m positive that it is “And when I woke up I was in a war zone, I was surprised to find a gun beside my feet” where it says “Then I woke up in a war zone, I was surprised to find a gun beside my feet”

    100% certain it’s actually “I don’t wanna be carryin’ it no more” where it says “I don’t wanna be a kid no more.”
