No Retreat.
Am I playing me part?
As you catch the pieces of our breaking hearts?
The unmade bed, lay unmade plans.
My feet are far from the mark.
Though my promises are broken from the start,
There's no heroics, no soldiers march,
Still a stoic, is hardened to the bark,
That comes before the bite.
Let's not waste more time waiting to find,
A sunny day for you and I,
This day is as good as any day to meet,
To say; 'no retreat'.
There's no fancy threads or fine shawls,
When you got debts up to your eyeballs,
But where we're going we don't need things so trivial,
Just the money for the petrol.
Though my body is more booze than blood,
And my name is as common as the mud, that we tread,
Like cracked leather,
Let's be cracked together.
I see ash clouds up behind,
I see rain clouds up ahead,
We made it this far, this part of the line,
Beats going home instead.
Let's not waste more time waiting to find,
A sunny day for you and I,
This day is as good as any day to meet,
To say; 'no retreat'.
