A Fine Frenzy - Silent War lyrics

Stifling, this day is stifling. You're sprawled out like a king On the sheets of my queen-sized bed And I'm too hot to lie beside, possessed of idle mind. this calm is a false friend. Jealousy, I suspect jealousy. Something is changing me Real slow from the inside out. It seems you mean too much to me, Too much for comfort, see. The cause is the cure, now. We fought a silent war In the hardware store and the air was thick as paint Though I carried it on, I knew that I was wrong But I fight when I'm afraid And I come with guns a-blazing Someone once (I forget who it was) Said, "Do not think so much, You can't hear what your heart says." But it speaks, it tugs and puddle-leaps, And bangs my ribs to pieces. Thoughts are the safe bet. We fought a silent war In the hardware store and the air was thick as paint Though I carried it on, I knew that I was wrong But I fight when I'm afraid My guns will come a-blazing, A lesser man would be afraid And Oh, how you raze me, oh, to the ground. And love, oh you brought me down with the sun of the ?? as you went out. The cause is the cure, now. We fought a silent war In the hardware store and the air was thick as paint Though I carried it on, I knew that I was wrong But I fight when I'm afraid With guns I come a-blazing, A lesser man would break free. "I'm sorry" 's all I meant to say.
