taylor swift great war

[00:02.18] My knuckles were bruised like violets

[00:06.96] Sucker punching walls, cursed you as I sleep-talked

[00:11.74] Spineless in my tomb of silence

[00:17.07] Tore your banners down, took the battle underground

[00:22.13] And maybe it was ego swinging

[00:26.94] Maybe it was her

[00:31.98] Flashes of the battle come back to me in a blur

[00:40.50] All that bloodshed, crimson clover

[00:42.90] Uh-huh, sweet dream was over

[00:45.29] My hand was the one you reached for

[00:49.02] All throughout the Great War

[00:51.68] Always remember

[00:53.27] Uh-huh, tears on the letter

[00:55.66] I vowed not to cry anymore

[00:58.85] If we survived the Great War

[01:02.31] You drew up some good faith treaties

[01:06.02] I drew curtains closed, drank my poison all alone

[01:13.74] You said I have to trust more freely

[01:18.79] But diesel is desire, you were playin' with fire

[01:21.97] And maybe it's the past that's talkin'

[01:26.76] Screamin' from the crypt

[01:32.08] Tellin' me to punish you for things you never did

[01:38.46] So I justified it

[01:40.05] All that bloodshed, crimson clover

[01:42.74] Uh-huh, the bombs were close and

[01:45.66] My hand was the one you reached for

[01:49.12] All throughout the Great War

[01:51.51] Always remember

[01:53.10] Uh-huh, the burning embers

[01:55.77] I vowed not to fight anymore

[01:58.95] If we survived the Great War

[02:02.66] Uh-huh

[02:05.37] Uh-huh

[02:12.02] It turned into something bigger

[02:17.10] Somewhere in the haze, got a sense I'd been betrayed

[02:21.88] Your finger on my hair pin triggers

[02:26.41] Soldier down on that icy ground

[02:28.30] Looked up at me with honor and truth

[02:32.03] Broken and blue, so I called off the troops

[02:37.60] That was the night I nearly lost you

[02:44.53] I really thought I lost you

[02:54.62] We can plant a memory garden

[02:59.42] Say a solemn prayer, place a poppy in my hair

[03:04.46] There's no morning glory, it was war, it wasn't fair

[03:10.85] And we will never go back

[03:12.98] To that bloodshed, crimson clover

[03:15.37] Uh-huh, the worst was over

[03:18.03] My hand was the one you reached for

[03:21.47] All throughout the Great War

[03:23.86] Always remember

[03:25.46] Uh-huh, we're burned for better

[03:28.42] I vowed I would always be yours

[03:31.35] 'Cause we survived the Great War

[03:35.63] Uh-huh

[03:37.76] Uh-huh

[03:39.65] I would always be yours

[03:41.50] 'Cause we survived the Great War

[03:45.77] Uh-huh

[03:48.17] I vowed I would always be yours
