Endless War (Acoustic)

V5.5

[Verse 1] He came home early But his eyes stayed overseas Boots on the doorway Mud on the memories Maps on the table Circles Arrows Names He drinks in silence Like it numbs the flame [Chorus] Who’s gonna end this endless war If every heart just closes its door I’m so tired of the counting Tired of keeping score I don’t want your medals I just want you here once more Someone Somewhere Please end this endless war [Verse 2] She folds his letters Till the paper’s thin Reads the same sentences Till the room starts to spin He says he’s “fine there” But the ink runs scared There’s sand in his handwriting And fear in every prayer [Chorus] Who’s gonna end this endless war If every heart just closes its door I’m so tired of the counting Tired of keeping score I don’t want your medals I just want you here once more Someone Somewhere Please end this endless war [Bridge] He said “I’ll be back” But the seasons changed Birthdays passed Faces aged Empty chair at the corner of the bed Every night she bargains With the names in her head If love is brave Then why am I so small If peace is close Why can’t I touch it at all She’d burn every flag Every broken vow For one quiet morning For one soft “I’m home now” [Chorus] Who’s gonna end this endless war If every heart just closes its door I’m so tired of the counting Tired of keeping score I don’t want your medals I just want you here once more Someone Somewhere Please end this endless war [Outro] She blows out the candle Whispers to the floor “I don’t need a hero I just need no more” One small voice Shaking at the core Someone Somewhere Please end this endless war
