I don’t want to hurt no body
I don’t want to kill no one
I just want to see my baby
Whose face is like the sun
I’m so far from Carolina
But I still can see her smile
And when I dream it almost seems
Like I’ve been with her awhile
Hello Lord, How’s your children
Do they still fuss and fight
With all these guns we’ve given them
And ship them off to fight
I don’t know if you’ve noticed
It’s become an awful sight
Hello Lord, How’s your children tonight
I don’t know what I’m doing here
I’m not sure if this is right
All’s I know I’m a soldier boy
And a soldier’s job’s to fight
Here I lay in this cruel sun
I’ve never seen such smoke and fire
And I’ve never seen so much blood
Lyin’ here in the mire
Hello Lord, How’s your children
Do they still fuss and fight
With all these guns we’ve given them
And then send ‘em off to fight
I don’t know if you’ve noticed
It’s become an awful sight
Hello Lord, How’s your children tonight
Please please Come for me
Please oh please Come for me
Hello Lord, How’s your children
Do they still fuss and fight
With all them guns we’ve given them
And send them off to fight
I don’t know if you’ve noticed
It’s become an awful sight
Hello Lord, How’s your children tonight

Shoegaze ist die Kunst des Dröhnens, doch „Everything Is Alive“ setzt diese Elemente nur sparsam ein. Statt Hall- und Zerr-Sounds aufzutürmen, schäumt die Musik in feinen Bläschen über.
