My knuckles were bruised like violets | Sucker punching walls, cursed you as I sleep talked | Spineless in my tomb of silence
My knuckles were bruised like violets Sucker punching walls, cursed you as I sleep talked Spineless in my tomb of silence Tore your banners down, took the battle underground And maybe it was egos swinging Maybe it was her Flashes of the battle come back to me in a blur All that bloodshed, crimson clover Uh-huh, sweet dream was over My hand was the one you reached for All throughout the Great War Always remember, uh-huh Tears on the letter I vowed not to cry anymore If we survived the Great War You drew up some good faith treaties I drew curtains closed, drank my poison all alone You said I have to trust more freely But diesel is desire, you were playing with fire And maybe it's the past that's talking Screaming from the crypt Telling me to punish you for things you never did So I justified it All that bloodshed, crimson clover Uh-huh, the bombs were closer My hand was the one you reached for All throughout the Great War Always remember, uh-uh The burning embers I vowed not to fight anymore If we survived the Great War Uh-huh, uh-huh It turned into something bigger Somewhere in the haze, got a sense I'd been betrayed Your finger on my hairpin triggers Soldier down on that icy ground Looked up at me with honor and truth Broken and blue, so I called off the troops That was the night I nearly lost you I really thought I'd lost you We can plant a memory garden Say a solemn prayer, place a poppy in my hair There's no morning glory, it was war, it wasn't fair And we will never go back to that Bloodshed, crimson clover Uh-huh, the worst was over My hand was the one you reached for All throughout the Great War Always remember, uh-uh We're burned for better I vowed I would always be yours 'Cause we survived the Great War Uh-huh, uh-huh I will always be yours 'Cause we survived the Great War Uh-huh I vowed I will always be yours
