Our lives are battle fields Egressing from the womb with war paint on our faces Soldiers live there life to fight not flight Yet, some of us are not strong enough We are weaker than the rest, Carrying paper wrists and our weapons filled with blade edged bullets Looking for an identity We our the unknown warriors Sulking upon tarnished territories We will sleep in guilt ridden graves, Apologizing to our mothers and our fathers for not wanting to fight anymore They'll weep and beg the heavens to send you back But you're an angel now There is no reason for war, There is no reason to be sad anymore Keep savior to your paper wrist Keeping savior in your heavenly spirit as well It's so easy to become lost in time that you can't even bare the thought of going back It's so comforting to be a coward, to just stop fighting.

Battlefield Cowards
Our lives are battle fields Egressing from the womb with war paint on our faces Soldiers live there life to fight not flight Yet, some of us are not strong enough We are weaker than the rest, Carrying paper wrists and our weapons filled with blade edged bullets Looking for an identity We our the unknown warriors Sulking upon tarnished territories We will sleep in guilt ridden graves, Apologizing to our mothers and our fathers for not wanting to fight anymore They'll weep and beg the heavens to send you back But you're an angel now There is no reason for war, There is no reason to be sad anymore Keep savior to your paper wrist Keeping savior in your heavenly spirit as well It's so easy to become lost in time that you can't even bare the thought of going back It's so comforting to be a coward, to just stop fighting.
