Make War lyrics

Our love is dead but without limit

Like the surface of the moon

Or the land between here and the mountains

It is not these hiding places that have kept us innocent

But the way you taught me to just let it all go back

So we've learn to be as faithless

Stand behind bulletproof glass

Exchanging our affections through a drawer

And It was always horribly convenient and happening too fast

You should count your change before you're even out the door

Well, yes you should, but please return, return

To the person that you were, and I will do the same

'Cause it's too hard to belong to someone who is gone

My compass spins, but wilderness remains

Once too often I've retreated into the depths of my despair

I built a barricade to block you on the road

But standing there with all of my possessions piled higher than a house

I felt closer to you than you ever would have known

So let's let these tiny acts of charity becommon ground on which to build

A monument to commemorate our time

And though you say you've found another who will surely speed you on your way

Don't let the forest grow over that path you came there by

But you will, so, so hurry up and run to the one that you love

And blind him with your kindness

And he'll make war, oh, war, on who you were before

And claim all that has spoiled in your heart

(alright, now help me out boys)

But now I tell myself I've mended under these patches of blue sky

There's still a few holes that let in a little rain

And so it's crying on my shingles

My floorboards moan under my feet

The refrigerator's whining so I've got reason to complain

But I'm not gonna bless you with such compliments

Some degrading song of psalm

Like the kind that converted you to me so long ago

Because the truth is that gossip's as good as gospel in this town

You can save face but you won't ever save your soul

And that's a fact so, so hurry up and run to the one that you love

And tie him up in your likeness

And he'll become, become, oh, the prisoner I was

And know all that has spoiled in your heart

He'll know it all

He'll know all that has spoiled in your heart

So hurry up and run to the one that you love

And blind him with your kindness

And he'll make war, oh, war, on who you were before

And claim all that has spoiled in your heart

Yeah, And claim all that has spoiled in your heart

(So hurry up and run to the one that you love

And blind him with your kindness

And he'll make war, oh, war, on who you were before

And claim all that has spoiled in your heart

Yeah, And claim all that has spoiled)
