War Of My Life by John Mayer by georginalub published on 2013-03-29T17:18:31Z War of my life | John Mayer @ Hershey 2010 ‘Now this might not have been on the list of songs you were expecting to hear this evening. But something happens to me, when I get to play this song. And that’s what writing a song is so wonderful for, is that you can sort of make a note to yourself. A musical note to yourself. I would say this song is a bit like a horoscope, or a psychic reading that was designed to make everybody think that it was spot on. Because quite frankly, I feel like everybody thinks that they’re currently in the war of their life. It’s what makes it interesting, you know? It’s a different battle for everybody out there. But I like the song, because it might sneak up on a couple people out there who are wondering how they’re possibly gonna carry on with life as they know it. And the answer is; don’t. But don’t get me wrong, you’re not gonna carry on with life as you know it. You’re just gonna know it differently, and then you’re gonna carry on with the new stuff that you learnt. Then you’ll get through it. So you might not have the answers now, but if you stick around you’ll pick up the magic flute. Yes, it’s a Zelda reference. Oh, I know that we’re all in the war of our lives. Not quite at the door of our lives. We’re out of time and there’s nowhere to run. So fight on. Just fight on everyone. I’ll fight on if you fight on. We got no choice but to fight till it’s done. And I won’t give up, don’t you give up now. I won’t run if you don’t run. I won’t stop if you don’t stop for anyone. Don’t you run, don’t you stop for anyone…’ - John Mayer, Hershey, 2010.
