VERSE 1:
- Two schools of thought that got polarised (polarised)
- How long before the troops get mobilised?
- Overnight, seemingly
- But it's been going on behind the scenery for a while though
- Please believe (uh-huh)
- They were tangled in emotion
- What's tangible was broken
- They're joking in poor taste (oh yeah?)
- But it's strange what they portray when they paint the portrait
- Doing dark shit but in the broad day
- Acting like it's all fine, I gotta draw lines
- If you wanna leave, don't waste any more time
- Saw that a mile off
- We had the foresight, though it could be a stray shot you were caught by
- Never saw it coming (nah)
- Never saw the dawn light up again (nah)
- Choking on your pride till you suffocate
- Love and hate under big stress fold you like a bad stomach ache (uh)
- On the right track but I'm a runaway (ha)
HOOK
- I don't wanna leave, I just wanna walk
- I just wanna breathe, I don't wanna talk
- One minute ride the wave, next you're on the shore
- I've been trying to talk peace to the god of war
- I don't wanna leave, I just wanna walk
- I just wanna breathe, I don't wanna talk
- One minute ride the wave, then you're on the shore
- I've been trying to talk peace to the god of war
VERSE 2:
- I've seen them fear rejection
- I'm not really stressing
- I'm trying to hear the lesson (yep)
- Count blessings and imperfections (ah)
- And bring them all together in acceptance
- There's many levels and dimensions
- But we were trying to break this down to the basics
- History repeating itself until you face it
- Until then, familiar faces and stories
- You judge me but try find a way to reform me
- That fits your needs (uh)
- They nearly caught me
- Brought your own jury (oh)
- The moral of the story
- Was struggling to find one
- Juggling your time sucks
- All you want is one thing, look at where it winds up
- I cut in unequal portions
- Pulling through drawstrings
- Add em to the bow, learning more things
- You acted like a master of contortion (ha)
- Getting out of a tight squeeze
- Over time we're morphing (one)
HOOK
- I don't wanna leave, I just wanna walk
- I just wanna breathe, I don't wanna talk
- One minute ride the wave, next you're on the shore
- I've been trying to talk peace to the god of war
- I don't wanna leave, I just wanna walk
- I just wanna breathe, I don't wanna talk
- One minute ride the wave, then you're on the shore
- I've been trying to talk peace to the god of war
VERSE 3:
- It's an alien concept
- All starts from taking that one step
- But we stay awestruck like they never taught us
- Had a good run but shit we got caught up
- Trying to put a loop in time
- Trying to work hard to provide
- Who decides where you go, what you do?
- Tell me something new, that I never knew
- That forever truth
- Then we won't ever lose
- Won't ever grieve
- Please don't ever leave
- Unless you really need to
- Could it really be true?
- Or just a place in my mind that I been to?
- A lie that's agreed to
- Pride is deceitful
- Lashing out is a sign of the weak too
- Didn't say sorry, they were too meek to
- Go elsewhere, you are free to
- Life gets tough, that's how it might treat you
- But we keep moving under the illusion
- Stuck on the part of the picture we zoomed in
- Lenses stuck with the blue tint
- Talk a lot but really don't do things
- And trying to stay real life, tuned in
- And feel like a real live human
