[Intro]
[Verse 1]
I keep my dist
ance from the
flags and the
scrolls,
I keep my own
ledger and I k
eep my own sco
re,
But lately my
compass is dri
fting from sho
re,
And I don't kn
ow victory fro
m loss anymore
,
[Chorus]
All I want is
a war,
To keep me saf
e from it all,
All I need is
a sense of,
The world I ho
ld and who I'm
fighting for,
[Verse 2]
So I see the w
arriors as the
y plunder and
fall,
While aching b
elievers make
sense of it al
l,
And under the
cover of chaos
and ruin,
Men make their
histories fro
m the crown to
the tomb,
[Chorus]
All I want is
a war,
To keep me saf
e from it all,
All I need is
a sense of,
The world I ho
ld and who I'm
fighting for,
[Bridge]
If I fight for
you will you
fight for me,
If I draw bloo
d will you ble
ed with me, te
ll me,
If I choose to
charge will y
ou trail my le
ad,
In my heart wi
ll you beat wi
th me, tell me
,
[Chorus]
When all I wan
t is a war,
To keep me saf
e from it all,
All I need is
a sense of,
The world I ho
ld and who I'm
fighting for.
