Lyrics
I measure heartbeats by the war drums
I gauge the intensity of emotions or situations by the anticipation of conflict (war drums).
They want to follow me?
Are they trying to emulate or pursue me?
I'll fire back at them
I will respond to their actions with equal force.
They come for you
They are coming to confront or attack you.
They come for me
They are coming to confront or attack me.
Archers, play your harps to the beat!
Instruments (archers) play music in harmony with the war drums.
They can take our hearts but never have our love
Our love is resilient, even if they take our hearts, they cannot take our love.
From afar, we hear their armies come
We sense the approaching enemy armies from a distance.
But, like our bond, these walls are strong
Our bond is as strong as the protective walls surrounding us.
""They'll come for us"" you said
You mentioned that they will come for us.
Cause it's you that they once had
Because they once had you, they target us.
But our love's what they want
Our love is the coveted target for them.
and they want what no one
They desire what nobody else in the world has but us.
in this world but us can have
Our love is unique and exclusive.
Thousands have died for us
Many have sacrificed their lives for us.
And there will be more
More will continue to sacrifice their lives.
There will be more falling by the hour
More casualties will occur rapidly.
Though, hope remains
Despite the losses, hope endures.
Why should anybody pay for us and our selfish ways?
Why should others suffer for our self-indulgent behavior?
What this heart wants could kill everyone
What my heart desires has the potential to harm everyone.
Just imagine what we'd conquer
Consider the impact of both of us pursuing our desires.
With both our drums beating strong
Even in confinement, our connection remains strong.
Even caged, we'll hear each other
Despite limitations, we will still perceive each other.
