The Great War - Taylor Swift
[00:04.05] My knuckles were bruised like violets
[00:06.97] Sucker punching walls, cursed you as I sleep talked
[00:11.76] Spineless in my tomb of silence
[00:16.54] Tore your banners down, took the battle underground
[00:21.59] And maybe it was ego swinging
[00:26.90] Maybe, it was her
[00:31.94] Flashes of the battle come back to me in a blur
[00:40.44] All that blood shed, crimson clover
[00:43.37] Uh-huh, sweet dream was over
[00:45.49] My hand was the one you reached for
[00:48.94] All throughout the Great War
[00:51.07] Always remember
[00:53.45] Uh-huh, tears on the letter
[00:55.60] I vowed not to cry anymore
[00:58.51] If we survived the Great War
[01:02.24] You drew up some good faith treaties
[01:06.76] I drew curtains closed, drank my poison all alone
[01:11.80] You said I have to trust more freely
[01:16.59] But diesel is desire, you were playing with fire
[01:21.62] And maybe it's the past that's talking
[01:26.68] Screaming from a crypt
[01:31.72] Telling me to punish you for things you never did
[01:38.63] So I justified it
[01:40.75] All that blood shed, crimson clover
[01:42.96] Uh-huh, the bombs were close and
[01:45.62] My hand was the one you reached for
[01:48.80] All throughout the Great War
[01:51.47] Always remember
[01:53.05] Uh-huh, the burning embers
[01:55.45] I vowed not to fight anymore
[01:58.36] If we survived the Great War
[02:03.41] Uh-huh, uh-huh
[02:12.18] It turned into something bigger
[02:16.70] Somewhere in the haze got a sense I'd been betrayed
[02:21.73] Your finger on my hair pin triggers
[02:26.63] Hold you down on that icy ground, looked up at me with honor and truth
[02:31.67] Broken and blue, so I called off the troops
[02:37.52] That was the night I nearly lost you
[02:43.64] I really thought I lost you
[02:54.55] We can plant a memory garden
[02:59.33] Say a solemn prayer, place a poppy in my hair
[03:04.37] There's no morning glory, it was war, it wasn't fair
[03:10.21] And we will never go back
[03:12.87] To that bloodshed, crimson clover
[03:15.53] Uh-huh, the worst was over
[03:17.92] My hand was the one you reached for
[03:21.37] All throughout the Great War
[03:24.04] Always remember
[03:25.63] Uh-huh, we burn for better
[03:27.75] I vowed I would always be yours
[03:31.20] 'Cause we survived the Great War
[03:34.91] Uh-huh, uh-huh
[03:39.43] I would always be yours
[03:41.03] 'Cause we survived the Great War
[03:45.81] Uh-huh
[03:48.99] I vowed I would always be yours
