Neon Trees - Our War Lyrics

When we were in our youth
We had dreams that we could fly
We had friends that weren't visible
And love that never died

And as we grow old and felt the pain
That we always knew the truth
That love would heal if we stayed true
To the dreams of our youth

I been walking 'round for hours
Holding onto stems of flowers
My chest is feeling all your pain
As it began to rain

And now it has come to this
The little victories, I'll miss
Of everything we've overcome
And all that's said and done

I'm leaving our war behind
Life can go on without you
I'm leaving our war behind
The night that I leave town

The walls that you and me take down
Are only getting taller now
And I've even forgotten how
To stand on my two feet

How honestly I'm on my own
And happier to be alone
But everything I do alone
Has every bit of you

I'm leaving our war behind
Life can go on without you
I'm leaving our war behind
The night that I leave town

Don't tell me to justify
Living my life without you
I'm leaving our war behind
The night that I leave town

All my life
It's always the same thing
All my life
It's always the same thing

All my life
It's always the same thing
Well, it's always the same, it's always the same
It's always the same thing

I'm leaving our war behind
Life can go on without you
