Lyrics

THE WAR CRY

It’s the loudest sigh that I follow
I’m not the type to be bothered
Bend my own mind into shallow
Slow, wasted nights
In the walls that I wrap around my head
I fled, follow me

Wanna love in a war that slows me down
But I don’t know anybody else who knows the war cry
& I’m afraid of the way I throw ‘em down
Every night, further from myself, so who am I?
A lie?

Keep on runnin’ but you’re breakin’ me down
I keep on runnin,’ oh yeah
In the maze, follow me

It’s a waste of time, I know
To search for peace in stone
I’ve tried my best to chew
This pill that kills me

Wanna love in a war that slows me down
But I don’t know anybody else who hears the war cry
& I’m afraid of the way I throw ‘em down
Every night, further from myself, so who am I?
Made away with the stolen cape and crown
On the way to take the devil down to see my soul die
And I’m afraid of the shape I’m takin’ now
I don’t know anybody else who sees the lie

Try, you might
