Battle Cry

Words are dripping from my blood boy

And my head's on fire

All the promises you break them

And pretend your mine

Let me shelter you from her pretty smile

I'll erase her taste for a little while

And her innocence that can drive you wild

I barely hang on

I barely stand strong cause

You belong to me

You belong to my arms

Hold me in the night

Hear my battle cry

You belong to me

You belong to my lips

This is not goodbye

But I draw the line here

I kept everything that I said silent

(I kept every tear in a waterproof sunset)

Saying it again to hear how it sounds

Diamonds on her lips cutting up parts of my life

(No not there yet)

Patching up the cracks and the walls and the windows

(Kissed your ghost I must make the most of the levy)

She will never love you the way I do

Always hiding her lust like a sharp butter knife

(Words are heavy)

Let me shelter you from your pretty smile

I could wear her dress for a little while

And her jaded grace wrapped around her lies

But you're not to blame and I'm not the same and

You belong to me

You belong to my arms

Hold me in the night

Hear my battle cry

You belong to me

You belong to my lips

This is not goodbye

This is not goodbye

We were young and hungry

Scream that you want me only

You belong to me

You belong to my arms

Hold me in the night

Hear my battle cry

You belong to me

You belong to my lips

This is not goodbye

This is not goodbye

(I stand strong for you, unwavered)

(I stand strong for you, unwavered)

We were young and hungry

Scream that you want me only

My heart's tired and breaking

Say it again say it again say it again

You love me
