lyrics

Waiting for war


I crave for a revolution
You say you could start a war
You’re beaten like me, your life is as free
What are we waiting for?

Your eyes tell stories of sorrow
They look into mine and I’m exposed
Tell me there is no tomorrow
How intricate, your trouble keeps me close

And I have lied like you
And that is why we’re pure
Baby, I’ll be your cure, through the night
And I have tried like you
And it’s a good misdeed
And I know what you need now, so let it go, let it go, let it go

Whisper back the heat to me
Why don’t we start a war?
You want it like me, your life is as free
What are we waiting for?
I will be gone before you realise it
I let the wind take me as it blows
Think of it every time it shivers you, my love
I never let anyone this close

And I have lied like you
And that is why we’re pure
Baby, I’ll be your cure, through the night
And I have tried like you
And it’s a good misdeed
And I know what you need now, so let it go
Let it go, let it go
Let it go, let it go
