Careless War

(album: Things I Can't Say Out Loud - 2021)

I thought you had a halo
I thought you were everything
I said I follow you where you go
But I'm tired of giving in
And now I know what you do oh oh
All you ever, ever say it's not true ooh ooh
I thought you had a halo
I thought you were everything

Lights we hide behind oh it's hard to find us
Laying in the fire
Blinded by the highs
Beaten by our love

I don't wanna be a passenger in a careless war
I don't wanna be a foreigner standing by your door
And oh God
I'm shackled by the storm
I don't wanna be a passenger in a careless war

I lost sleep on your pillow
Playing games, I'd never win
I said I'd follow where you go
But I'm tired of giving in
Now I know what you do
All the lies on lies they're cruel
I lost sleep on your pillow
Playing games I'd never win

Lights we hide behind oh it's hard to find us

I don't wanna be a passenger in a careless war
I don't wanna be a foreigner standing by your door
And oh God
I'm shackled by the storm
I don't wanna be a passenger in a careless war

I don't wanna be a passenger in a careless war
I don't wanna be a foreigner standing by your door
And oh God
I'm shackled by the storm

I don't wanna be a passenger in a careless war
I don't wanna be a foreigner standing by your door
And oh God
I'm shackled by the storm
I don't wanna be a passenger in a careless war
