War Games

There’s a fire
There’s a flame
‘Till nothing else remains
The sky is tainted with smoke
You’re my enemy
My friend
Where love starts
And where it ends
Friction
Confliction in my bones
Hear the church bells a’ringin’
Sayin’ are we coming home?
In my head a voice is telling me
You better run (you better run)
You better run (you better run)
I’m not afraid
Shoot my down
Bang bang
Richochet when you take aim
Is this a war?
Tell me what’s it for
‘Cause in the end look what we became
In these wicked war games
You’re toxic to me
Killing quietly
Poison with each breath
Someone in rain
My pleasure is my pain
A prisoner with no escape
Gunfire my ears are ringin’
Maybe I’m not comin’ home
In my head a voice is telling me
You better run (you better run)
You better run (you better run)
I’m not afraid
Shoot me down
Bang bang
Richochet when you take aim
Is this a war?
Tell me what’s it for
‘Cause in the end look what we became
In these wicked war games
Is this a war?
Tell me what’s it for
‘Cause in the end look what we became
In these wicked war games
