Flawless Victory - Caravels

I can see how this will end

In a cloud of dust

In a filthy war

I can see how this will end

While we’re still clinging

To whatever

We can find

And all of this I’ve been through before

Its a page that’s been torn

From that same old story

And we’re desperate

We’ll tear down the shelves

To read a different ending

Keep your head down, don’t let them see you

Just rest here

Keep your hopes high, it can’t be much longer now

Can’t wake up

So we sat and waited for it to pass

I’ve been growing old

In these trenches

Waiting for the white flag

To be waved

Well I’ve been playing it right

Right from the script

Waiting for the same cue

To slow and just stop

All the lines of my face are filled with dust (with dust)

And oh how I’ve learned to sleep so well in dirt

All the things I said I meant, but wasn’t sure

All the words we never kept, but we had to say

It was never a secret

We never kept it quiet

We said what we said and we’ll say it again

This isn’t home

And all of this I’ve been through before

Is a page that’s been torn

From that same old story

We’re desperate

And We’ll tear down the shelves to read a different ending

To read a different ending

Now I’m climbing up and getting out

I’m going home, I’m going home

Now I’m climbing up and getting out

I’m going home, I’m going home

Now I’m climbing up and getting out

I’m going home, I’m going home

Now I’m climbing up and getting out

I’m going home, I’m going home

Now I’m climbing up and getting out
