Waving The White Flag

About willingly people will settle and fall in love with people that are a negative or destructive influence

We invite you to the battleground

Love is an arena defiled several times

All of the heartbreak set to repeat

All those tears already cried

Have you seen the tired logic?

"I'm trapped in a dark place"

"It's just something I have to do"

It's just I'm so f*****g tired of you

Why should you rise from the ashes

When you keep walking back into the fire?

She feels a sense of duty

To make what's broken whole again

He feels complacency

It's easier to settle than to lose

He feels placated and secure

Gamble with her misplaced feelings

She's naive, self-destructing

It's easier to surrender than to refuse 

Romance is a country in turmoil

It endures for no reason but fear

Of being left out in the cold

Is it better to be bought and sold?

There's no better life in this

To be together for no reason at all

Do you want a place to rest your head?

You should just fall asleep instead

You just keep coming back

Your friends wave the white flag

She feels a sense of duty

To make what's broken whole again

He feels complacency

It's easier to settle than to lose

He feels placated and secure

Gamble with her misplaced feelings

She's naive, self-destructing

It's easier to surrender than to refuse 

And at the finish

As the credits roll

There's no sunsets in paradise for us

Just the ghosts and feeling cold
