Senses Fail - War Paint lyrics
[Senses Fail - War Paint lyrics]
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 try 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
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
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
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 try 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
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
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
