Wolf & bear

War paint

Wolf & bear
The longer I'm awake the more frustrated I get
To know I'm losing sleep to fight off demons in my bed
I've never known slumber just an illusion of rest
I'm waiting for the words that will never be said

Throw your banner down there's no battle to be fought
Wash your war paint off
Throw your banner down, I won't kill to make you proud of me
Can't wash those blood stains off

Your held captive by conviction
Causing pain becomes routine
I want to save you from your shackles
I don't know how to set you free
Your held captive by conviction
Causing pain becomes routine
I want to save you from your shackles
I don't know how to set you free

No rose is worth the thorns if you start to lose more blood
No kingdoms worth the crown if you lose everyone

Throw your banner down there's no battle to be fought
Wash your war paint off
Throw your banner down, I won't kill to make you proud of me
Can't wash those blood stains off

As the leafs rest upon water dormant
To be still if only for the moment
The current picks it's pace
Once calm now stirred
Once calm now stirred

Every condolence you've made can't stop the torment
(Break my spirit, lift it up)
You've caused so much pain in heat of the moment
(Pull me under, I am barely hanging on)
Rejected every helping hand to fuel your motive
(Hold me captive, I have figured you out)
Life doesn't have to be littered with constant conflict
(We can make it if you'd only)

Throw your banner down there's no battle to be fought
Wash your war paint off
Throw your banner down, I won't kill to make you proud of me
Can't wash those blood stains off
