lyrics

Last night was a battlefield
Me, girl with a daisy, you, man with a gun.
A world with real tragedy
Leaving me stunned,
Actions bringing peace,
But there’s no sweet release.
We are not assassins…
Return us to the battlefield
I can only pay attention
Can’t afford the peace.

We can’t be saved
We must be brave
We can’t be saved
We must be brave

Last night was a battlefield
Me, girl with a daisy, you, man with a gun.
A world with real tragedy
Leaving me stunned,
Actions bringing peace,
But there’s no sweet release.
We are not assassins…
Return us to the battlefield
I can only pay attention
Can’t afford the peace.

We can’t be saved
We must be brave
We can’t be saved
We must be brave

Your voice is an echo
Your warmth upon my skin like
Ghosts upon my face.
You move like a shadow
My heart once safe within your hands…
But you’re never coming home.
Your face lost in an image,
Etched upon my soul.
Return us to the battlefield
I can only pay attention
Can’t afford the peace.
