Retreat Lyrics

Ya thought it was funny said you were leaving me

I know that you're kidding,

but those words cut me deep

When you lean on

The one you dream on

Trying to make bitter words taste sweet

Should I rally the men and head back in town

Gather my things, and turn right around

Count up the casualties, lay down my sword

Hold tight to things that weren't said before

You are the love I never expected to meet

As I gather my things

head for the door and retreat

All those glances at girls

I never wanted to be

You said that your happy

It feels like a lie to me

It's a constant war with my heart and my head

A battle I fight till everyday's end

Can't tell if I'm happy

Or if it's just pretend

Should I rally the men and head back in town

Gather my things and turn back around

Count up the casualties, lay down my sword

Hold tight to things that weren't said before

You are the love I never expected to meet

As I gather my things

Head for the door and retreat.

I sent out a battle cry

Between myself and I'm

Crying for clarity

I don't wanna fight

Bring dark scars to light

You evade my PTSD

On the frontline where I'm finally seeing everything

When allies become the enemy

Should I rally the men and head back in town

Gather my things and turn right around

Count up the casualties lay down my sword

Should I rally the men and head back in town

Gather my things and turn right around

Count up the casualties, lay down my sword

Hold tight to things that weren't said before

You are the love I never expected to meet

As I gather my things head for the door and retreat

Retreat

Retreat
