War Is a Romance

The shrapnel has landed piercing the span of your senses
High desperation I march on to mount my offenses
Left for dead as I walk on defenseless

War is a romance
Love is the same
Take the advice you were given
Run senseless into the flames

This ruthless abandon
Kill me now I am loveless
The shame from this famine
Bruises me raw with the boneless and the damned
But no man is entitled to the blood of the living or the dead

War is a romance
Love is the same
Take the advice you've been given
Run senseless into the flames

Of birth, and death
Abundant offenses attack but we haven't defeated them yet, no
Haven isn't warm but it's a place to rest
But we had nothing and no way to get there
It isn't any warmer in the shadows of death
But I have returned here from beyond

War is a romance
Love is the same
Take the advice you were given
And run senseless into the flames
Of your birth, and death
Abundant offenses attack but we haven't defeated them yet, no
Haven't defeated them yet, no
