White Flag
Surrendering to Love's Battlefield
Lyrics
I caught you on the offensive
I discovered you in an aggressive stance
But you've levelled my defences
You have overcome my defenses
Blood on my face or is it lipstick?
There's a substance on my face, unsure if it's blood or lipstick
Twin projectiles, were they ballistic?
Referring to two potential threats, questioning if they were projectiles
I tried a little gentle persuasion
I attempted to persuade gently
But you insisted on an invasion
You insisted on an aggressive action
I was getting my senses back
I was regaining my awareness
You launched a full frontal attack
You initiated a direct and forceful attack
Call the hostilities to a halt
Requesting a cessation of hostilities
I can't cope with this brutal assault
Feeling overwhelmed by a brutal assault
I've tried it all from money to charm
Attempted various approaches from money to charm
I may as well unilateral disarm
Considering giving up and disarming unilaterally
You foiled my plants with a mind detector
Your actions thwarted my plans with a mind detector
I'm a conscientious objector
Claiming to be a conscientious objector
The war you started was all out
The conflict you initiated was all-encompassing
I didn't mean for us to fall out
Unintentionally causing a falling out between us
You laid waste to my apartment
You caused significant damage to my living space
With a saturation bombardment
Using intense and widespread bombardment
Your mental state was on activate
Your mental state was activated and ready to explode
It was ready and set to detonate
Sensing that there was a mistake in our relationship
Somewhere I think that we got it wrong
Realization of sitting on a metaphorical time bomb
I found myself sitting on a time bomb
The looks you're giving are intensely corrosive
The looks you're giving me are pure corrosive
Being cautious because you're emotionally explosive
I'd better watch out 'cause you're highly explosive
Feeling defeated, battered, and in pain
I'm beaten, I'm bloody, I'm aching, I'm sore
Unable to endure more of this internal conflict
I can't take anymore of this civil war
Choosing to surrender as a result of reaching the limit
I'm gonna surrender 'cause I've had enough
If this is your way of rough play, I've had enough
If this is your idea of playing it rough
Aware that blame may fall on me after the conflict
When all this is over I'll get the blame
Once allies and friends, now the relationship seems to be ending
For allowing escalation of your war games
I once was your ally, I once was your friend
-But now it seems it's over and it looks like the end
