Plant your flags, To the victor go the spoils of war; Take it all away; I bet you think that you're in charge, Always pointing your finger at me; I'm still the one who takes the blame; CHORUS Paper soldiers, Left in ashes while we kill each other; (Kill each other) Like cannon fodder, We fall victim and the world grows colder; (World grows colder) SUFFER Iconoclasts, Expose the lies that leave us dead inside; Save us from decay; Just take me back to when it started, To where it all began to take shape: Is this the version I became? (Chorus) If we suffer through the worst of this; They always say that it’ll all be worth it; But I don’t stare into a broken promise; I’ve learned to leave behind the bullshit; (Chorus) x2 SUFFER!
