lyrics

Tonight, I've felt myself fall away
goodbye, my wrist has flicked it's final wave.
Because when you said you've come undone,
I traced the thread back to your lungs
and I don't think you should hold your breath.

I feel we're at war, again
Unholy war, again.
I feel we're at war, again
Unholy war, again.
Go on and save your ammunition
for another man's imposition.
If we go to war again,
nobody wins.

War paint, war paint,
take off your war paint.

Turn white,
draped like a flag of dirty sheets
In flight,
I'm strung out the slack you're feeding me.
Because when you said you've come undone,
I traced the fear back to our love
and I don't think it was ever enough.

I feel we're at war, again
Unholy war, again.
I feel we're at war, again
Unholy war, again.
Go on and save your ammunition
for another man's imposition.
If we go to war again,
nobody wins.

War paint, war paint,
take off your war paint.

There's no need to worry,
I'll never let you,
There's no need to worry,
I'll never let you back in.

Four months and seven years ago
we crossed the wires and let it blow.
Now only the ash of us remains,
I wash my hands and walk away.
Walk away...

I feel we're at war, again
war again, war again.
Go on and save your ammunition
for another man's imposition.
If we go to war again,
nobody wins.
