lyrics

My heart,
It swells
From the cannonball
When you made me your
Main target.

These songs,
They wail
From the top of my lungs
When I scream out your name
With no answer.

It makes me feel
Like the dirty ground
That you tread upon
Towards your exit.

It makes me feel
Like a broken love
That you tell all of
Your excuses.

And I couldn’t leave your side now if I tried.
Like a boy, lost in war, I have lost the will to fight,
And I go through the motions
With no hope of returning,
And no hope of ever knowing
What is right.

My coward arms
Are held up high
I surrender,
I cannot run.

Blood on our hands,
Released innocence
For a better grip
On the gun.

It makes me feel
Like an animal
I am loyal and
Always wait.

It makes me feel
Like a filthy love.
The neglect won’t just
Wash Away.

And I couldn’t leave your side now if I tried.
Like a boy, lost in war, I have lost the will to fight,
And I go through the motions
With no hope of returning,
And no hope of ever knowing
What is right.
