It was true what they said About me and you how we were misled I was so common, you were not bothered We dressed it up, divide and conquer Town to town, we went hard Parked at the hotel, slept in our car I'll tell a joke, you sway and saunter We found a way, divide and conquer Well, I was waiting for some bravery that never showed up Just messing around with a stick of dumb luck Dancing on the table just a-cutting it up Singing in the living room and falling in love Shut you out 'cause you wouldn't shut up Cut me down 'til I couldn't get up Laughing at thе brevity of life on the run Howling 'causе my dad will never meet my son Conquer, divide and conquer We went wading through the water Lay it on the altar Dressed for slaughter Divide and conquer All that time we spent together What once could fly Now just a fallen feather SongtexteThen the sickness came Then came the weather Tossed and torn 'til we came untethered What did we learn? What did we reap? We both took turns Now the hills too steep I'll take the boy You take the daughter It just made sense Divide and conquer And I was waiting for some bravery that never showed up Just messing around with a stick of dumb luck Dancing on the table just a-cutting it up Singing in the living room and falling in love Shut you out 'cause you wouldn't shut up Cut me down 'til I couldn't get up Laughing at the brevity of life on the run Tore a page right out of "Annie Get Your Gun" Conquer, divide and conquer We went wading through the water Lay it on the altar Dressed for slaughter Divide and conquer Can we go back? To when we both could see How good it was How good it could be Just a nowhere boy Holding hands with a songbird Before we were blinded by time Before we divided and conquered Can you still see me? Or are we just myth? What once moved like water became a monolith No longer free but somehow stronger Come back to me, here is my armor I was waiting for some bravery that never showed up Just messing around with a stick of dumb luck Dancing on the table just a-cutting it up Singing in the living room and falling in love Shut you out 'cause you wouldn't shut up Cut me down 'til I couldn't get up Laughing at the brevity of life on the run Howlin' 'cause my dad will never meet my son Conquer, divide and conquer We went wading through the water Lay it on the altar Dressed for slaughter Divide and conquer Aus Songtexte Mania
