"War" lyrics

"War"

I sleep with the lights off
And hope for the best
As all of your words
Fly like knives through my chest

Stick to your slander
Put me to the test
I hope that it brings you some comfort

Oh tell your stories
And lock your halls
Build your kingdom
As your world falls

Tell your Armies
To guard their walls
Cause the war will rage when I wake up tomorrow

Strike me down
Tell me I'm worthless
As if I deserve it
It makes me strong

Take my crown
I know past the surface
You're empty and hollow as all of your lies

I run from my demons
Into the battle
Fight for the confidence I lost

At the hand of your comedy
Let's see who laughs now
When it all ends and you see the costs

Oh tell your stories
And lock your halls
Build your kingdom
As your world falls

Tell your Armies
To guard their walls
Cause the war will rage when I wake up tomorrow

So I ask
Did you find peace
In all that you said

Cause you caused that king
To get caught in his head

And I wonder
If we'll ever face what we dread
Facing the fear of ourselves

Cause I don't know
If we'll ever find our way home
You and I we're lost
In the same old lies

Oh tell your stories
And lock your halls
Build your kingdom
As your world falls

Tell your Armies
To guard their walls
Cause the war will rage when I wake up tomorrow

Cause the war will rage when I wake up tomorrow
