I think I grew up too fast.

"I'm walking wounded on the ground, but I will stand here tall. No, I will stand here tall
You try to rip me but I don't tear and I don't care
My skin is thick now, I learnt these lessons years before

This time I'm ready for your war

But I will stand here tall - no I will stand here tall
I should have put this flame out years ago
but you burnt my house down, I won't leave
and if I stand here alone in this dust I've got nothing left to lose, nothing left to lose

I've seen your ways and
I know your plans
Coz I've been around
And I've seen this place before
I wont do this anymore
But if you want war then you've got war

So pick your friends out

I'll take my place and you'll take yours

Load your guns up

And we'll declare an ex-lovers war

I should have seen this years before

But now I'm ready for your war

I should have closed these borders years ago

But you left me somewhere I know well

And as I stand here in no-mans-land

I contemplate your attack

I've seen your ways and

I know your plans

Coz I've been around

And I've seen this place before

I wont do this anymore

But if you want war then you've got war"
