ARMISTICE

ARMISTICE
lyrics and music by Jered Feldman


I don't mean to hurt you, I don't mean to try
I don't even mean to ask, "why"?

I'm searching for answers as if they exist
"How is this my fault", I beg, I insist.

A plug.  A bandage.  Whatever in life can manage
the cuts, the scars, bleeding throughout the bars.
The gashes, the ashes in the win death flows as chaff
And when the howls and screams shout louder I still can't help but laugh.
I don't understand why.  Don't know what makes me tic,
but ticked, I get, when the tic's inflict more treatment undeserved, meaning
You don't deserve blame and neither do I
but when I'm told "This my fault", I crack under pressure.

I didn't mean to hurt you, I didn't think I tried.
Maybe I don't think at all?  For that I 'pologize.

I've searched Truth for healing. I plead for armistice.
Warfare's still 'round me and, no, I didn't start this.

You're not my enemy, I'll stop hearing you as "they".
I will lay my life down, again, 'cuz, it will absolutely hurt no more.
