Lyrics
War
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You run, like the letters on these pages
I'm not sick but still so far away from sane
Nightmares, but I haven't slept in ages
The battles won, but there's still poison in our veins
We've lost control, anything but gently down the stream
Hold me close, hold me tell me life is but a dream
Save me, I think I'm losing my mind
You said you'd come for me when the world swallows me whole
Well, this is war
Save me, the battles won but the war is still to fight
You said you'd come for me when the world swallows me whole
Well, this is war
You breathe like your lungs aren't full of matches
Every careful word you speak has a chance of sparking fire
I hope I can sleep straight through the madness
But I can't even tell when I'm sleeping anymore
We've lost control, anything but gently down the stream
Hold me close, hold me tell me life is but a dream
Save me, I think I'm losing my mind
You said you'd come for me when the world swallows me whole
Well, this is war
Save me, the battles won but the war is still to fight
You said you'd come for me when the world swallows me whole
Well, this is war
Let the darkness come for me, let it try to steal my soul
As if I had a soul to steal
