Once & for All Songtext

von The Crane Wives

I tried it your way, you tried it mine
The white flags still aren't waving, this ain't the good fight
I'm putting my foot down, weak knees and all
Finally standing on my own after the great fall

Once and for all
Once and for all
Once and for all

I only fought for love at your request
Didn't think you'd be the one to leave me clutching at my chest
Remember, you're the one that gave up when my blood runs dry
You could still carry me away but you'd leave me here to die

Once and for all
Once and for all
Once and for all

Dodge bullets and fire spray, my blood's forever on your hands
When my ghost sings my battle cry you'll be too sorry to dance

Once and for all
Once and for all
Once and for all

Once and for all, what does that mean?
It's a promise I'm making that I don't actually believe
Once and for all means I've tried it before
So many times that I'm just fucking tired
I'll never be able to close that door

Once and for all
Once and for all
Once and for all
Once and for all
