This is not a war
I tell myself again and again and
I'm not fighting you
I'm pushing against my own ribs
And if I gave you the chance
Maybe you'd come down kicking and screaming
But this is not a war
And I do not surrender

You wouldn't die for me
But would you kill?
You wouldn't die for me
But would you kill?

I could have sworn
The world ended three weeks ago
With a bang and a whimper
Apologies stacked away with rotting memories
And if I gave you the chance
Maybe you'd come down kicking and screaming
But this is not a war
And I do not surrender

a/n: it sounds better when sung.
I was so tempted to put it under the war category.
It's a civil war, really.
