"You Wanted War" lyrics

Tell me your secrets, the damage that you've laid
And know that I'll keep them until our dying days
Don't make me regret you as time begins to fade
And spare me the temptation it's a useless masquerade

'Cause I would tell us all that you were only just a fake

'Cause you wanted war. You better hope and wish and pray
'Cause you'll get blown away and never thought of here again
You wanted war but now you've fallen to defeat
And we all know that you were meaningless and weak
You wanted war!

I'm taking no chances. I'm firing at my will
You've left me no choices. Can you just spare the guilt?
Do you take me for some innocent caught up in apathy?
You're mistaken, disillusioned, a walking tragedy

And all the time you occupied a distant memory

'Cause you wanted war. You better hope and wish and pray
'Cause you'll get blown away and never thought of here again
You wanted war but now you've fallen to defeat
And we all know that you were meaningless and weak
You wanted war!

Life and death
A victim's tragic
Life in your hands
Strung by madness
Lit like a fuse
Anticipation
Hung like a noose
In accusations
There's no use in running, no
'Cause now you've crossed a brand-new law

Right

'Cause you wanted war. You better hope and wish and pray
'Cause you'll get blown away and never thought of here again
You wanted war but now you've fallen to defeat
And we all know that you were meaningless and weak
You wanted war!
