Anybody's War - Icehouse

Her arms around a flag of blue

His colors flying black and white

She hears the voice between the lines

He hears the warning, he turns his black

Anybody’s war who is there to catch the pieces

Anybody’s war faces we don’t recognize

She catches every last regret

She holds it gently like a dying star

He stands like a small boy in the street

Throwing rocks and stones into the crowd

Anybody’s war who is there to catch the pieces

Anybody’s war faces we don’t recognize

Anybody’s war turning round and round in circles

Anybody’s war people just like you and I

Just a little too afraid to take the blame that they can’t hide

Like a frightened child who is running scared

And they know each other well

Through the innocence long gone

Is the only thing they ever shared

She’ll promise that she’ll try again

He’ll promise that he’ll settle down

And they will call themselves the best of friends

But still they’re strangers, just like anyone
