Germany

You hold your huge gun
As I grab some sticks and stones
I'm just waiting for the sun to come
'Cause I know all my will is gone.

You know what to say to ruin a place
That was supposed to be good, supposed to be safe
You know what to do to put down my walls
And make me feel so small.

~chorus:
I feel like you're Germany
And this house declared World War II
Talk about how England is mean and unfair
But that's not the whole truth.
So you can tell them you didn't mean it
But I noticed the smoke
Maybe right now you don't see it
But I'm no longer alone.

I hear the judgement of a thousand men
But it all comes from you
You know you left me no choice but stay
'Cause there's no place I can flee to.

And I hear the noise downstairs
Silently hoping you'll stay there
An act of mad is not an act of brave
But maybe I'm going insane.

~chorus:
I feel like you're Germany
And this house declared World War II
Talk about how England is mean and unfair
But that's not the whole truth.
So you can tell them you didn't mean it
But I noticed the smoke
Maybe right now you don't see it
But I'm no longer alone.

~bridge:
So now I'll grab my sword
Because I can never have a gun
You will always have more
And know more, and be more
But maybe I'll burn
I'll get some matches and burn it all
I'll scream everything I want
And then I'll leave
'Cause there will be no option but run.

~chorus:
I feel like you're Germany
And this house declared World War II
Talk about how England is mean and unfair
But that's not the whole truth.
So you can tell them that you cared
But I noticed the smoke
You can tell them that I'm a mess
'Cause it's true.
But so are you.
