Taylor Swift - The Great War
[00:02.23] My knuckles were bruised like violets
[00:07.31] Sucker punching walls, cursed you as I sleep-talked
[00:12.37] Spineless in my tomb of silence
[00:17.45] Tore your banners down, took the battle underground
[00:22.51] And maybe it was ego swinging
[00:27.58] Maybe it was her
[00:32.39] Flashes of the battle come back to me in a blur
[00:40.90] All that bloodshed, crimson clover
[00:43.59] Uh-huh, sweet dream was over
[00:45.97] My hand was the one you reached for
[00:49.45] All throughout the Great War
[00:52.09] Always remember
[00:53.71] Uh-huh, tears on the letter
[00:55.83] I vowed not to cry anymore
[00:59.02] If we survived the Great War
[01:03.01] You drew up some good faith treaties
[01:07.52] I drew curtains closed, drank my poison all alone
[01:12.31] You said I have to trust more freely
[01:17.35] But diesel is desire, you were playin' with fire
[01:22.40] And maybe it's the past that's talkin'
[01:27.18] Screamin' from the crypt
[01:32.83] Tellin' me to punish you for things you never did
[01:39.21] So I justified it
[01:40.81] All that bloodshed, crimson clover
[01:43.47] Uh-huh, the bombs were close and
[01:46.12] My hand was the one you reached for
[01:49.32] All throughout the Great War
[01:51.97] Always remember
[01:53.56] Uh-huh, the burning embers
[01:55.96] I vowed not to fight anymore
[01:59.14] If we survived the Great War
[02:03.66] Uh-huh
[02:04.98] Uh-huh
[02:12.42] It turned into something bigger
[02:17.47] Somewhere in the haze, got a sense I'd been betrayed
[02:22.25] Your finger on my hair pin triggers
[02:26.79] Soldier down on that icy ground
[02:28.67] Looked up at me with honor and truth
[02:32.65] Broken and blue, so I called off the troops
[02:37.96] That was the night I nearly lost you
[02:45.17] I really thought I lost you
[02:55.02] We can plant a memory garden
[02:59.83] Say a solemn prayer, place a poppy in my hair
[03:04.89] There's no morning glory, it was war, it wasn't fair
[03:11.29] And we will never go back
[03:13.18] To that bloodshed, crimson clover
[03:16.10] Uh-huh, the worst was over
[03:18.51] My hand was the one you reached for
[03:21.96] All throughout the Great War
[03:24.62] Always remember
[03:25.94] Uh-huh, we're burned for better
[03:28.37] I vowed I would always be yours
[03:31.84] 'Cause we survived the Great War
[03:36.12] Uh-huh
[03:38.74] Uh-huh
[03:39.60] I would always be yours
[03:41.99] 'Cause we survived the Great War
[03:46.25] Uh-huh
[03:48.66] I vowed I would always be yours
