Lyrics
I don't want to be a part of this
Expressing a desire not to be involved in a particular situation or circumstance.
I don't want to share the blame
Declining to share responsibility or culpability for something negative.
I don't have to know the body count
Rejecting the need to be aware of the number of casualties or harm caused.
I don't want to see my face on this
Avoiding the sight of one's own image associated with a negative situation.
I don't want to be ashamed, no
Expressing a refusal to feel shame.
I don't have to know the body count
Reiterating the lack of interest in knowing the number of casualties.
I don't wanna have to fight you anymore
Expressing a desire to avoid conflict.
But I will, I will
Despite the desire to avoid fighting, acknowledging a willingness to engage in it if necessary.
I don't wanna have to fight you anymore
Repeating the reluctance to engage in conflict.
But now I will
Despite reluctance, accepting the inevitability of conflict now.
Now I want to be a part of this
Expressing a change in perspective, now desiring to be involved in the situation.
Now I want to feel the blame
Now willing to accept responsibility or blame.
Now I have to know the body count
Recognizing the necessity of being aware of the number of casualties.
Now I have to see my face on it
Accepting the visibility of one's face in connection with the situation.
Now I have to be ashamed
Acknowledging a willingness to feel shame.
Now I have to know the bodies count
Affirming the need to know the number of bodies involved.
I don't wanna have to fight you anymore
Repeating the desire to avoid conflict.
But I don't wanna have to fight you anymore
Reiterating the aversion to fighting.
I don't wanna have to fight you anymore
Emphasizing the reluctance to engage in conflict.
But I'm not gonna flee your holy war
Refusing to escape from a conflict perceived as sacred or righteous.
I don't wanna have to fight you anymore
Repeating the unwillingness to fight, despite the challenging situation.
But I will, oh, but I will
Despite the reluctance, expressing a commitment to engage in conflict.
Oh, but I will oh, but I will
Further emphasizing the determination to engage in the conflict.
