Dear circumstance It always starts with you Playing a fool, setting the rules You got to end it too Couldn't have given me that How fast it goes The time we take to lose Over the fence, making a mess Oh tell me what to do Couldn't have given me that We ain't gonna win the fight dear They say it's worth the ride We ain't catching up in time dear It's all behind the eyes I want a war romance I want a war romance I wanna take your hand and hold it through the night We'd no idea The end was quite so near Now it's too late, we're lying in wait Put your faith in a muse There's only dreaming to do These heavy hours That only love devours Cut off the ropes, surrender to gods I wish I had one now Wouldn't have figured it out We ain't gonna win the fight dear They say it's worth the price We ain't pulling up in time dear It's all beneath the lies I want a war romance I want a war romance I wanna take your hand honey It's our only chance It's our only chance I need you
