"You've Won This War" lyrics

"You've Won This War"

You've won this war
Through your retreat
For years to come
They'll put flowers at your feet
Yes, you've won this war
By admitting defeat
Your body is cold
Your body is complete

The scar on your skin, yes, it shows
That war in fact is takes its toll
And what's left of your flesh when it's through
Is a testament to it changing you

You've won this war
By laying your arms down
Your submission
Your humble sound
You've won this war
Simply marching away
You'll sleep peacefully at night
Having triumphed today

The scar on your skin, yes, it shows
That war in fact is takes its toll
And what's left of your flesh when it's through
Is a testament to it changing you

Yes, it changes you (Oh, oh)
Yes, it changes you (Oh, oh)
It changes you
Yes, it changed you
