Not Fighting

by Steve McGrady

/

about

A protest song for sure but, is it political or personal?

lyrics

Did you read Machiavelli?
Pale imitation prince
I see now you misled me
With your power to convince

Verse 2
Conflict rising from nowhere
I’m suffering fatigue
Off’ring nothing but warfare
Seeds of doubt sown by intrigue

Chorus
I’m not fighting anymore
Didn't sign up for your war
All my protests you ignored
I’m not fighting anymore

Verse 3
No excuse as you departed
Guess you couldn’t take the heat?
Cut short the fight you started
Retreat avoids defeat

Chorus

Bridge
Enjoy plotting your mind game
Rewrite history, deny the truth
You claim revenge is not your aim
Eye by eye, and tooth by tooth

Chorus
I’m not fighting anymore
Didn't sign up for your war
All my protests you ignored
I’m talked out, tired and bored
...
I’m not fighting anymore
