A Fine Frenzy - Silent War lyrics
[A Fine Frenzy - Silent War lyrics]
Stifling, this day is stifling
You're sprawled out like a king
On the sheets of my queen-sized bed
And I'm too hot to lie beside
Possessed of idle mind
This calm is a false friend
Jealousy, I suspect jealousy
Something is changing me
Real slow from the inside out
It seems you mean too much to me
Too much for comfort, see
The cause is the cure, now
We fought a silent war
In the hardware store and the
Air was thick as paint
Though I carried it on
I knew that I was wrong
But I fight when I'm afraid
And I come with guns a-blazing
Someone once (I forget who it was)
Said, "Do not think so much
You can't hear what your heart says."
But it speaks, it tugs and puddle leaps
And bangs my ribs to pieces
Thoughts are the safe bet
We fought a silent war
In the hardware store and the
Air was thick as paint
Though I carried it on
I knew that I was wrong
But I fight when I'm afraid
My guns will come a-blazing
A lesser man would be afraid
And Oh, how you raze me, oh, to the ground
And love, oh you brought me down
With the sun of the? as you went out
The cause is the cure, now
We fought a silent war
In the hardware store and the
Air was thick as paint
Though I carried it on
I knew that I was wrong
But I fight when I'm afraid
With guns I come a-blazing
A lesser man would break free
"I'm sorry" 's all I meant to say
You're sprawled out like a king
On the sheets of my queen-sized bed
And I'm too hot to lie beside
Possessed of idle mind
This calm is a false friend
Jealousy, I suspect jealousy
Something is changing me
Real slow from the inside out
It seems you mean too much to me
Too much for comfort, see
The cause is the cure, now
We fought a silent war
In the hardware store and the
Air was thick as paint
Though I carried it on
I knew that I was wrong
But I fight when I'm afraid
And I come with guns a-blazing
Someone once (I forget who it was)
Said, "Do not think so much
You can't hear what your heart says."
But it speaks, it tugs and puddle leaps
And bangs my ribs to pieces
Thoughts are the safe bet
We fought a silent war
In the hardware store and the
Air was thick as paint
Though I carried it on
I knew that I was wrong
But I fight when I'm afraid
My guns will come a-blazing
A lesser man would be afraid
And Oh, how you raze me, oh, to the ground
And love, oh you brought me down
With the sun of the? as you went out
The cause is the cure, now
We fought a silent war
In the hardware store and the
Air was thick as paint
Though I carried it on
I knew that I was wrong
But I fight when I'm afraid
With guns I come a-blazing
A lesser man would break free
"I'm sorry" 's all I meant to say
