Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Silence
The battlefield sinks beneath my feet
Settle down society
Surrender all we know
Said thanks but I'm okay with what I'm told
(What we are told)
I probably should have known better
But I'll learn right from wrong
Better I listen to myself when
I'm burnt from the flames but still fuel the fire
I can't promise I'll be home
Can't promise I'll be home
[Verse 2]
Can you hear the casualty call to the nonbeliever?
Justify a cause where we don't deserve to live
Evil-minded corporate war for a lost allegiance
Sacrifice all for the cost of innocence
Can't you see that when the time comes
And they call on us
We'll show them the white flag
Soaked in our blood
We're damned if we do, damned if we don't
Silence
The battlefield sinks beneath my feet
Settle down society
[Verse 3]
Sail for hope, safest seas
How shallow of me to live like my life's misery
Will we be washed up with the wreckage of saviour?
And I'm sick of hearing no fault of mine
I can't promise I'll be home, can't promise I'll be home
Wake up!
So when the time comes and they call on us
We'll show them the white flag soaked in our blood
Far right, far from right
We left the wing because the violence was deafening
Far right, far from right
We left the wing because the violence was deafening
[Verse 4]
Can you hear the casualty call to the nonbeliever?
Justify a cause where we don't deserve to live
Evil-minded corporate war for a lost allegiance
Sacrifice all for the cost of innocence
Can't you see that when the time comes
And they call on us
We'll show them the white flag
Soaked in our blood
We're damned if we do, damned if we don't
Silence
The battlefield sinks beneath my feet
Settle down society
A scarlet letter marks us all
We're damned if we do, damned if we don't
