[Part I: The Great War]

[Verse 1]
My knuckles were bruised like violets
Sucker punching walls, cursed you as I sleep-talked
Spineless in my tomb of silence
Tore your banners down, took the battle underground
And maybe it was egos swinging
Maybe it was her
Flashes of the battle come back to me in a blur

[Chorus]
All that bloodshed, crimson clover
Uh-huh, sweet dream was over
My hand was the one you reached for
All throughout the Great War
Always remember
Uh-huh, tears on the lеtter
I vowed not to cry anymore
If wе survived the Great War

[Post-Chorus]
Uh-huh
Uh-huh

[Verse 2]
You drew up some good faith treaties
I drew curtains closed, drank my poison all alone
You said I have to trust more freely
But diesel is desire, you were playing with fire
And maybe it's the past that's talking
Screaming from the crypt
Telling me to punish you for things you never did
So I justified it
[Chorus]
All that bloodshed, crimson clover
Uh-huh, the bombs were closer
My hand was the one you reached for
All throughout the Great War
Always remember
Uh-huh, the burning embers
I vowed not to fight anymore
If we survived the Great War

[Post-Chorus]
Uh-huh
Uh-huh

[Bridge]
It turned into something bigger
Somewhere in the haze, got a sense I'd been betrayed
Your finger on my hairpin triggers
Soldier down on that icy ground
Looked up at me with honor and truth
Broken and blue, so I called off the troops
That was the night I nearly lost you
I really thought I'd lost you

[Part II: You're Losing Me]
[Bridge]
But how long could we be a sad song
'Til we were too far gone to bring back to life?
I gave you all my best me's, my endless empathy
And all I did was bleed as I tried to be your bravest soldier
Fighting in only your army
Front lines, don't you ignore me
I'm the best thing at this party
And you're losing me
And I wouldn't marry me either
A pathological people pleaser
Who only wanted you to see
And I'm fading thinking, "Do something, babe, say something
Choose something, or risk something
Choose something, babe, I've got nothing
To believe
Unless you're choosing me"

[Chorus]
Stop
You're losing me
Stop
You're losing me
Stop
You're losing me
I can't find a pulse
[Part III: The Great War]

[Chorus]
From that bloodshed, crimson clover
Uh-huh, the bombs were closer
My hand was the one you reached for
All throughout the Great War
Always remember
Uh-huh, the burning embers
I vowed not to fight anymore
If I survived the Great War

[Post-Chorus]
Uh-huh
Uh-huh

[Part IV: The Great War / You're Losing Me]

[Outro]
I can't find a pulse anymore
But I survived the Great War
Uh-huh
I vowed not to cry anymore
If I survived the Great War
