Is that how you say "I love you"
With literal flesh and blood
Do you give them all of your body And bury them in the flood
When the breath that you give to another Threatens to blow your flame out There's little room for discussion And little room for doubt
We all want to live forever
We all want to write our names in the stars We all want to play the hero
In our own little wars
So maybe behind the darkness
There's a kindness that we forgot I'm not saying it's all on your shoulders Or saying that it's not
So now when you say "I love you" Does it really mean the same
All of these unborn children
Will bury my father's name
We all want to live forever
We all want to write our names in the stars We all want to play the hero
In our own little wars
We all want to live forever
We all want to write our names in the stars We all want to play the hero
In our own little wars
Our own little wars
Our own little wars
