Landmine Lyrics

Landmine lyrics

Never was a world I couldn't sing into place until now

Never was a love that I could not replace until now

Winter was hard, we came out with our hearts frozen through

Now we're holding our breath and I'm trying to hold on to you



Was it that you wanted that I didn't understand

Boomerang of expectations back to bite the hand



And I give my love to you

And you, you walk away too soon



A land mine doesn't take much to trigger the blast

Feel all along my faults and defenses at last

Someday you'll dismantle the colored wires

Yellow, green or red, is it love or desire



You can face me now or you can shrug and act surprised

Either way someday you'll see yourself reflected in my eyes



And I give my love to you

And you, so brave

You sing 'Heroes' when you're all alone

You balk at what you should have known it

You've got nothing to lose, but me

You lose me, love me, choose me



Never was a world I couldn't sing into place until now

Never was a love that I could not replace until now



But I, I give my love to you

And you, you walk away too soon

And I, I give my love to you

And you, so brave

You sing 'Heroes' when you're all alone

You balk at what you should've known it

You've got nothing to lose, but me

You lose me, love me, choose me
