Landmines

_Here we are falling apart
Shooting words like they’re arrows
Aimed straight for the heart
All these years of small deceits
We've been building up these armies so long
Now there's no retreat
There's only mutual defeat
Stepping on landmines
Everywhere we turn
Blowing up sky high
While the pieces of us just burn
How did we end up like this?
Was there a line that we crossed
Or some sign that we missed?
Shadows fall and colors fade
While we tiptoe around
All the tripwires we’ve laid
And all the promises we’ve betrayed
Stepping on landmines
Everywhere we turn
Blowing up sky high
While the memories all burn
Stepping on landmines
With everything we're worth
Watch the sparks fly
Put your foot down while I scorch the earth
We'll never pass this way again
This lesson's already learned
No we'll never need this bridge again
So we might as well just let it all burn
Watch the sparks fly...
Stepping on landmines
With everything we're worth
Blowing up sky high
Put your foot down while I scorch the earth
Shooting words like they’re arrows
Aimed straight for the heart
All these years of small deceits
We've been building up these armies so long
Now there's no retreat
There's only mutual defeat
Stepping on landmines
Everywhere we turn
Blowing up sky high
While the pieces of us just burn
How did we end up like this?
Was there a line that we crossed
Or some sign that we missed?
Shadows fall and colors fade
While we tiptoe around
All the tripwires we’ve laid
And all the promises we’ve betrayed
Stepping on landmines
Everywhere we turn
Blowing up sky high
While the memories all burn
Stepping on landmines
With everything we're worth
Watch the sparks fly
Put your foot down while I scorch the earth
We'll never pass this way again
This lesson's already learned
No we'll never need this bridge again
So we might as well just let it all burn
Watch the sparks fly...
Stepping on landmines
With everything we're worth
Blowing up sky high
Put your foot down while I scorch the earth
