City At War

I'm a city at war
Get to gathering in the street
Crying to just to say they raised the flag
I think they're crying for relief
Ahhh

Uniforms flood the street
Keep the angry youth at bay
Now the sea from high above
I don't know who's side to pick

I love you
And I'll fight to prove it
I can't escape the skin I'm living in
No matter how hard I try to do it
To do it
To prove it

Who can I trust?
When every arm I've ever known is flesh
In myself I see a father
A brother
A sinner's son insane

Please dont let my lovers be the victims
Please dont let my lovers be the victims
Please dont let my lovers be the victims
Don't let me tie them to the bridge I made

I love you
And I'll fight to prove it
But I cant escape the skin I'm living in
Who can I trust if I cant trust myself?
I cant escape the skin I'm living in
No matter how hard I try to do it
To prove it
I will
