Weepies - How You Survived the War lyrics

You never change your mind once it's made up Unless it's to crawl back on your knees Is that the way you want it? You get back to the wall And put your hands up It's a holdup You give up like every time before That is how you survived the war You never multiply, all these divisions You give yourself the least of parts I put on my green felt hat, pack our privisions Playing a merry Prince of Thieves Is that the way you want it? You get back to the wall And put your hands up It's a holdup You give up like every time before That is how you survived the war You're not gonna lose this one You don't have to cut and run I think you can choose to love and what is more That is how you survived the war Now in a summer's day, spring a ripened plum How will you live under the sun? You follow the open road, remembering the guns When you get lost under the trees Is that the way you want it? You get back to the wall And put your hands up It's a holdup You give up like every time before That is how you survived the war That is how you survived the war You never change your mind once it's made up
