We chose our sides

Claimed our territories

Years ago

Now we're getting older

I'm too old to defend my castle

And I've lost too much ground



The cavalry can't save me

I surrender to her majesty

My white flag waves in the wind

From the storm within my body

Pull your trigger on me

I'm your prisoner set me free



I've offered you a truce

It's love or war, you'll have to choose

We should at least be honest

Life's too short to question this



Bullets in the kitchen

Muskets under our mattress

Your ammunition still won't let me say goodbye

This battlefield is dry

And your flag stands out in the corner of my eye



I've offered you a truce

It's love or war, you'll have to choose

We should at least be honest

Life's too short to question this

We should at least be honest

Life's too short to question this

We should at least be honest

Life's too short to question this
