WHITE FLAG


I caught you on the offensive 
But you've levelled my defences

Blood on my face or is it lipstick? 
Twin projectiles, were they ballistic?

I tried a little gentle persuasion 
But you insisted on an invasion

I was getting my senses back 
You launched a full frontal attack

Call the hostilities to a halt 
I can't cope with this brutal assault

I've tried it all from money to charm 
I may as well unilateral disarm

You foiled my plants with a mind detector 
I'm a conscientious objector

The war you started was all out 
I didn't mean for us to fall out

You laid waste to my apartment 
With a saturation bombardment

Your mental state was on activate 
It was ready and set to detonate

Somewhere I think that we got it wrong 
I found myself sitting on a time bomb

The looks you're giving me are pure corrosive 
I'd better watch out 'cos you're highly explosive

I'm beaten, I'm bloody, I'm aching, I'm sore
I can't take anymore of this civil war

I'm gonna surrender 'cos I've had enough
If this is your idea of playing it rough

When all this is over I'll get the blame 
For allowing escalation of your war games

I once was your ally, I once was your friend
But now it seems it's over and it looks like the end
