Battle Cries

I raise the white flag, bruised to the core To wounded to justify myself anymore Another surrender you've crushed in your hand Another fight lost, still, you won't understand Tenure my lungs until they're smithereens You think that without you, I've no right to breathe A blood flush with love coloures me red Proof we exist beyond my severed head Your eyes, now so cold, full of anger and fear It seems you have spoiled them with furious tears There once was a time we would fight this together Now we stand alone, stand apart Forever? A battle of souls, your incredible beauty is lost, replaced with a malicious cruelty You think I'm alright, seems I got good at lying I'll never admit that I fall asleep crying You don't have to win, this isn't a race REMEMBER We used to breathe at a united pace Now as we face eachother and all that went wrong Who's going to fight for me, now that you're gone?
