War Paint
I've still got passion, and I've still got guts
But I no longer give a fuck about what you want
You say I'm a savior and a saint?
Then let's stop pretending and pull out the war paint
Or do you refuse to open old wounds,
In fear that you'll actually have to feel?
We tried so hard, we try to just pretend
That things didn't change as the honeymoon set
This house, this ring, the secrets shared in bed
Were built on the faith in the foundation
And I feel the bend
The fucking more I see who you've become
The more I lose sight of the love
That I once had in your brown eyes
I used to be afraid that this would end,
Now I embrace it
We are ships passing through the night
We tried so hard, we try to just pretend
That things didn't change as the honeymoon set
This house, this ring, the secrets shared in bed
Were built on the faith in the foundation
And I feel the bend
I see bright lights flicker ahead
I see stars shining to their death
I see you
And I don't know what to do
Beautiful sunset
Passionate kiss
These things mean nothing when you cannot come to terms with
The person who you are, and who you're meant to be
Are separated by a sea of insecurities
I've been digging out from underneath
An avalanche that has taken twenty years to see
Our reality is our own to create,
And the sooner that you realize that
The sooner that you can change
Or history will just hit repeat
And you will pass your poison down onto your child's feet
And they will struggle, struggle to breathe,
Cowering in shadows that you cast they cannot see
Beautiful sunset
Passionate kiss
These things mean nothing when you cannot come to terms with
The person who you are, and who you're meant to be
Are separated by a sea of insecurities
I've been digging out from underneath
An avalanche that has taken twenty years to see
Our reality is our own to create,
And the sooner that you realize that
The sooner that you can change
I won't repeat
I won't repeat
I won't repeat the things that I can change
I won't repeat
I won't repeat
I won't repeat the things that I can change
But I no longer give a fuck about what you want
You say I'm a savior and a saint?
Then let's stop pretending and pull out the war paint
Or do you refuse to open old wounds,
In fear that you'll actually have to feel?
We tried so hard, we try to just pretend
That things didn't change as the honeymoon set
This house, this ring, the secrets shared in bed
Were built on the faith in the foundation
And I feel the bend
The fucking more I see who you've become
The more I lose sight of the love
That I once had in your brown eyes
I used to be afraid that this would end,
Now I embrace it
We are ships passing through the night
We tried so hard, we try to just pretend
That things didn't change as the honeymoon set
This house, this ring, the secrets shared in bed
Were built on the faith in the foundation
And I feel the bend
I see bright lights flicker ahead
I see stars shining to their death
I see you
And I don't know what to do

I won't repeat
I won't repeat
I won't repeat the things that I can change
I won't repeat
I won't repeat
I won't repeat the things that I can change
