With my modern memory
The Great War I remember
I was slaughtered in the wasteland
My head hanging off my neck
You dragged me through the feilds
But not before you had your way
And as I stood there watching you
My eyes began to glaze
Control is slipping from my sweaty palms
I'll crush your blackened heart to keep it
We can feel like we've been living
As our insides slowly rot
Because we hate the past and beg for it
To stop
The burns around my ankles
Don't compare to my black lungs
An addiction to abuse
And sad silver tongues
That are testing one another
To see who would break down first
So you crumbled at my feet
And I forgave you
Control is slipping from my sweaty palms
I'll crush your blackened heart to keep it
We can feel like we've been living
As our insides slowly rot
Because we hate the past and beg for it
To stop
I'm gonna watch you watch me watch you watch me go
I'm gonna watch you watch me watch you go
So you crumbled at my feet and I forgave you
Control is slipping from my sweaty palms
I'll crush your blackened heart to keep it
We can feel like we've been living
As our insides slowly rot
Because we hate the past and beg for it
To stop
I'm gonna watch you watch me watch you watch me go
I'm gonna watch you watch me watch you go
