weapons of war

I stood alone on the porch
Looking over the fields with my brandy hand
Sometimes I run
Sometimes I limp
Sometimes I’m just thinking of you
Got a little excited, but that’s okay
'Cause everybody’s looking for love
Got a little excited, but that’s okay
'Cause everybody’s looking for love
You want a little respect
Acting like a child on the introspect
Hiding on the wall side
On the dark side of the bed
You’re playing in wigs now
All dressed in gold
That’s no polish, it’s the life I’m told
These are the weapons of the war
You’re laced in a candy shame
Do you have a handle on your pain
I am here to celebrate your life
I am here to be your friend now
Yeah, I am your friend
You want a little respect
Acting like a child on the introspect
Hiding on the wall side
On the dark side of the bed
You’re playing in wigs now
All dressed in gold
That’s no polish, it’s the life I’m told
These are the weapons of the war
It’s the short skirt, it’s the long hair
Then you tell that you don’t care
You want a little respect
Acting like a child on the introspect
Hiding on the wall side
On the dark side of the bed
You’re playing in wigs now
All dressed in gold
That’s no polish, it’s the life I’m told
These are the weapons of the war
