If You Want A Battle

Out of the trenches,

I heard a rumble in the branches.

Gilded glances,

ready to shut down your advances.

Trained for resistance,

laughing at your sheer persistence.

Screams in the distance,

you find a way to frame it with no difference.

So, if you want a battle,

I'll give you the war,

Blinding armor as I walk up to your door.

Armies of battered women,

coming to drain you of your venom.

My cannons fire at your good name,

and you will blow up just the same.

So if you want a battle boy,

I will bring you the whole damn war.

You'll try to be hidden,

but you know we'll track you down in an instant.

Never trust an angry woman,

you should know that since you've made so many of them.

I'll go explain to your family,

that you are not the man they raised.

And we'll show you what you did to us,

before we leave you outside to decay.

So, if you want a battle,

I'll give you the whole damn war.

Blinding armor as I walk up to your door.

Armies of battered women,

coming to drain you of your venom.

My cannons will fire at your good name,

and you will blow up just the same.

So, if you want a battle,

I'll bring you the whole damn war.

The girl you trapped in your tower,

doesn't even know you have all the power.

All I'm asking for is vengeance,

nothing that I don't deserve.

I thought you would in my wedding,

but now I'm present at your beheading.

And guess what,

I'm smiling,

something you always told me I should do,

now I'm doing it for you.

I'm ready to see the snake for who he is.

So, if you want a battle,

I'll give you the whole damn war.

Blinding armor as I march up to your door.

Armies of battered women,

coming to drain all your venom.

Load the cannons girls,

tear off all your pearls,

he deserves to die in the worst way,

don't you?

So, if you want a battle,

I'll give you the whole damn war.

Do you want a battle?

And he'll whisper,

no, not anymore.
