We Don't Go There Anymore Lyrics

The day has only just begun
And I'm feeling so tired
I take my orders from the sun
It decrees my desires
I don't care where I fall
When the wind shakes on my window
I'm happy doing nothing at all

The war has only just begun
But my last shot has been fired
I'll never fight for anyone
Not my style to kneel before the empire
With a blindfold where
There should be a cause
Not my place to sit here in judgement
So I'm waiting for that empire to fall

Fly the flag and rise to shine
Break the rules and bring them home to burn
Sing in time or stay behind
I will always use the things I learn
To be smart and I learn to be small

The night has only just drawn in
And I'm feeling so cold
I get my orders from within
But I never seem to do what I am told
And I don't care where I go
When the wind blows right through me
I'm happy walking fast or running slow

Fly the flag and rise to shine
Break the rules and bring them home to burn
Sing in time or stay behind
I will always use the things I learn
To be smart and I learn
Coming home to be near you again
Oh I'm staying hear to be near you again

The steepest hills make for the greatest views
You got to feel the pain to sing the blues
The fear of death is hanging in my room
I'll sit and wait with open arms for you
