​the war

[Intro]
(heylog)

[Verse 1]
Can you keep a secret? Don't tell anyone
These butterflies around me resting on my thumb
I think they're a sign that I've made it from numb
Dodging my own hatred but I fail to duck
We've tried but it's so hard
I'm just another kid reaching for your arms
Like I said, can we try again?
I swear to you, I'll make it up
But this is probably the end

[Chorus]
Into light
Hold my hand
For the fight
War's ahead
File in line
Hold the stance
Here the monsters like to dance
Viruses versus pesticides
I'm hoping I'll sleep through the night
Hold my hand as we go high
Do not look down, just close your eyes

[Verse 2]
So if you keep this secret will you go and tell?
'Cause if that's the case I'll keep it to myself
But you can tell me yours, I won't tell anyone
This stays between us and no one else
I miss talking with our eyes, it hurt like hell
So are you doing fine? 'Cause I'm wishing well
I have your turtleneck, but it lost your smell
I think of you too much, you're killing my brain cells
When I was a child I had everyone
Now I'm older and I don't feel like growing up
I've changed since, I've hidden for a couple months
And they still been the same, try it for yourself
The war is on its way, can you hear them run?
They're raging, but they laugh when the job is done
And the boy who's in his gut sobbing 'cause he lost
'Cause everything he did had no purpose and not even a cause

[Chorus]
Into light
Hold my hand
For the fight
War's ahead
File in line
Hold the stance
Here the monsters like to dance
Viruses versus pesticides
I'm hoping I'll sleep through the night
Hold my hand as we go high
Do not look down, just close your eyes

[Bridge]
The war
Is done
Set fire
To them all
Silence
Peaceful
Finally
(You've escaped)
(You're so lucky)
(You've run from me)

[Outro]
Can you keep a sec-sec—? Don't tell anyone
These b-b-flies around me resting on my thu-umb
I-I think they're a-a sign that I've made i-it f— numb
Dodging my own hatred but I fail to duck
We've tried but it's so-o hard
I'm just another ki-i-i-id reaching for your ar-ar-ar—
Like I said, can we try again?
