You fend off the armies with your wooden sword Running with your demons by your side Tearing at the splinters that I left behind To fight the endless battle with your pride And though you threaten often to fall on your blade I hear you crying wolf along the tide I watch you walk unscathed through the poppy fields And I wonder just how many times you've lied... Lied I see you through the clearing mist with reddened eyes You're bleeding from the sever at your side I tore myself away from you so suddenly That none of this would heal if we tried And as the sun is rising on another day I see you lift your banner to the sky The hands that held so tightly start to slip away And I wonder just how many times you've lied... Lied
