War

(album: You Can't Kill Us - 2016)

You and I go deep like water
You and I run red like blood
You know my darkest secrets
I know what you're made of
Drip drop the rain is falling
I hear it all could flood
One rainy night away
From losing all you love

It's a brilliant game you play
When you lock yourself away
And you make me fight for you, you, you

I can't keep you above water
I can't drag your soul to shore
Don't know how to fix a sinking ship
Or win a losing war
It's a heavy load to carry
And I can't hold on much more
On the surface it looks perfect
Underneath it's just a perfect storm

I've so much more to tell you
We're running out of time
It's dark and dangerous treading
Oceans in your mind
Up all night, I held your hand
While you wandered in the dark
You know I can't make you better
When all you want to be is lost

It's a brilliant game you play
When you lock yourself away
And you make me fight for you, oh, fight for you

I can't keep you above water
I can't drag your soul to shore
Don't know how to fix a sinking ship
Or win a losing war
It's a heavy load to carry
And I can't hold on much more
On the surface it looks perfect
Underneath it's just a perfect storm

I can't survive for both of us
I can't hold back the waves
This ocean isn't big enough for both of us
I'll let the water carry me away
I'll let the water carry me away

I can't keep you above water
I can't drag your soul to shore
Don't know how to fix a sinking ship
Or win a losing war
It's a heavy load to carry
And I can't hold on much more
On the surface it looks perfect
Underneath it's just a perfect storm

I let the water carry me down
I let the water carry me down
On the surface it looks perfect
Underneath it's just a perfect storm

I let the water carry me down
I let the water carry me down
On the surface it looks perfect
Underneath it's just a perfect storm
