Lyrics
The Battlefield Commission
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.
If this is how you want it then I'm throwing down the gauntlet, just know that
It gets cold and lonely here when you turn on your friends and you can quote me on this:
We took a whole song to say
That you mean nothing to us
And most especially nothing to me
We play this game with a little bit of heart
And lord knows we never said die, not once, when
Each and every night I'll put my life on the line
And for no other reason than to feel what it's like to survive
And everybody wants to see us fail, but I don't care I'm being honest,
Cause I heard lessons not learned in blood are soon forgotten and
We're in for a turf war but I came prepared we're
Dug in and fed up and we're not taking prisoners
We play this game with a little bit of heart
And lord knows we never said die, not once
When each and every night I'll put my life on this line
And for no other reason than to feel what it's like to survive
We took a whole song to say
That you mean nothing to us
And most especially nothing to me
It just makes this that much sweeter
Cause I want you to feel defeated when this one comes around,
Damn right I'm calling you out:
What would I be if I couldn't believe in something
Like bricks or typewriter instincts
We're sworn enemies, you're a dead man walking
Know that I'll be hell if you come hunting but I'm tired of talking
Cause our word is our bond, it's all we can say, I said I would bury you
And I keep the promises that I make
Cause we play this game with a little bit of heart and lord knows that we never said die
Not once.
