Red States

Let's just today say love lives on

Say that the blacks and blues have faded

Are all gone

I am prepared to bandage over all our lies

But you can't expect a miracle to happen over night

Let's just today say love is war

With each new casualty you

Even out the score

I am the man who held you high when you fell down

Please understand it's hard to take

Another brutal round

And what's to gain for loving her?

Sweet moments saved amongst

The photographs we've stored

And what's to gain for loving her?

He wakes up falling for he's lost his equilibrium

But finds your arms and that's what love is worth

Let's just today say love is all

Say I remember well when we were still in love

You were the one who grew so tired of everything

But somehow I'm supposed to take

The lion's share of blame

And what's to gain for loving her?

Sweet moments saved amongst

The photographs we've stored

And what's to gain for loving her?

Red states and blue states at war for

Independence but within eachother's arms

Their love is growing strong, growing tall

Growing high, high, high
