Armies Against Me Lyrics

Armies Against Me lyrics

Mary-Jo, don't you know

you've got to learn to be alone

and though the pavement's beckoning 

now come away from that window

and as the water touches chin

I let a little sunlight in

yeah as the waves are crashing in

I find a light to guide you in



so bring your armies against me, my love

infiltrate me with your spies

and implicate me in your lies

the world's not out to get you, my love

I know it feels that way sometimes

and you don't even hold me by your side

fill your head with guns and bombs

don't take too long, take too long



Mary-Jo, don't you know

I read the note on your pillow

was it signed in lipstick or signed in blood?

I guess now I'll never no

correct me now, if I'm wrong

it seems bleeding hearts don't last that long

and our last words still echo on

and honey now that you're gone...



so bring your armies against me, my love

infiltrate me with your spies

and implicate me in your lies

the world's not out to get you, my love

I know it feels that way sometimes

and you don't even hold me by your side

fill your head with guns and bombs

don't take too long, take too long



Oh, just one last thing before I go

I never meant to hurt you so

Breathing alone, you too I went out(?)

For eternal yesterday

just one last thing before I go

I never meant to hurt you so

say it once

I'll see you once again



so bring your armies against me, my love

infiltrate me with your spies

and implicate me in your lies

the world's not out to get you, my love

I know it feels that way sometimes

and you don't even hold me by your side

fill your head with guns and bombs

don't take too long, take too long



fill your head with guns and bombs

don't take too long, take too long
