Strawman War Lyrics by Nine Aetharia

We All Yearn For Something

2021

[Verse 1]
Silver-white against the meadow heap
Lost on my way to the edge of sleep
Stained with colors that I've never seen
Eyelids pressed against reality
Hollow with accountability
Skinned alive by all the guilt in me
[Pre-Chorus]
I once stood hand in hand with my best friend
And we are standing, still, standing still on opposite ends
[Chorus]
On earth as it is in heaven
And we invented no man’s land
Just skip over the present
We know exactly how this ends
Unfortunate enough to bе surprised
By your violent gentlеness
There is no sorrow like loyalty scorned
To save oneself
[Verse 2]
Once I thought you'd always side by me
Maybe I invented lying
Prayers are left on read by royalty
All these promises are dying
[Pre-Chorus]
I once stood hand in hand with my best friend
And now we're standing, still, standing still
As each other’s end
[Chorus]
On earth as it is in heaven
And we invented no man's land
Just skip over the present
We know exactly how this ends
Unfortunate enough to be surprised
By your violent gentleness
There is no sorrow like loyalty scorned
To save oneself
[Interlude]
Remember
Remember what you said
Remember
Remember before the red
Remember
Before you left me for dead
Remember
Before we began the end
[Chorus]
On earth as it is in heaven
And we invented no man's land
Just skip over the present
We know exactly how this ends
[Outro]
On earth as it is in heaven (What are we fighting for?)
And we invented no man's land (What are we fighting for?)
Just skip over the present (What are we fighting for? Center stage)
We know exactly how this ends (Nothing more than a strawman war)
Unfortunate enough to be surprised (What are we fighting for?)
By your violent gentleness (What are we fighting for?)
There is no sorrow like loyalty scorned (What are we fighting for? Center stage)
To save oneself (Nothing more than a strawman war)
