This Is War

[Verse]
My heart woke up my head like a thunderstorm, a place where I can barely stand
I spent a winter without my air, but now I feel it in my chest
I'm just so sick of the scenery, and all those hours without sex
I get so tired of being me, but now I'm feeling this again

[Pre-Chorus]
And God knows that you can't see after dark
But I won't give this up 'cause I wrote it on my chest

[Chorus]
So tell me what you think of the atmosphere and all those months inside my head
Well do you really believe in me?
I will hold this like a gun because I've got some things to do
(Stay what you are, stay what you are)
Because I've got some things to do

[Verse]
I filled up all my future with written words
I told the whole world I was spent
I came around when they needed me
And that's just how I learned to give
With all the feelings and losing sleep
In the scene where I found hope
Buried deep
And now I never want to go

[Pre-Chorus]
God knows that you can't see after dark
But I won't give this up 'cause I wrote it on my chest

[Chorus]
So tell me what you think of the atmosphere and all those months inside my head
Well do you really believe in me?
I will hold this like a gun because I've got some things to do
(Stay what you are, stay what you are)
Because I've got some things to do

[Bridge]
Yeah, I do
I've got all those plans laid out again
Like this is war, and I want to touch the coast again
I'll forget to take my voices going
Forget to hold my breath as spoken
And say, "Don't you remember where you've been?"

[Chorus]
So tell me what you think of the atmosphere and all those months inside my head
Well do you really believe in me?
I will hold this like a gun because I've got some things to do
(Stay what you are, stay what you are)
Because I've got some things to do
