[Lyric] Call To Arms (Yakobo)

[Verse 1]
Thirteen months and a few days
Since I made a pact with myself
And I knew that I was foolish to throw down my gun
I got two further years ‘til my armistice is done
And you weren’t far from the same strip of land I called home

Solitary and sworn so
You were sure you had no call to arms
Bow to the inevitability now
We broke truce, I crossed into your borders somehow

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I’ve been digging myself an open grave
So oblivious to the trap I laid
Help me honey, I’m inches from the edge

[Chorus 1]
And there’s no need to fall in love, I didn’t mean to fall in love
I just got carried away, there’s no one to blame
I was warming to enough, but now I’m howling for too much
And there’s no easy escape, no tug of the chain
But I think we’re ok
[Verse 2]
There’s no such thing as fear of flying
There is just the aversion to fall
And I’ve dropped too many times to be jumping again
Without good assurance of wind in these wings

But honey I’ve gotta tell you
Although the trepidation is strong
Each little morsel of hope you provide
Fills me with the belief I can leap from these heights

[Pre-Chorus 2]
We’ve been kidding ourselves to walk away
Deaf to pressure that heralded our fate
Now there’s nothing I long to do but stay

[Chorus 2]
And there’s no need to fall in love
I didn’t mean to fall in love
I just got carried away with that breeze in my face
And I not calling for a crutch, atop this cliff I need a nudge
I just get nervous these days, so easily phased
But I’ll try to be brave

[Outro]
Funny thing, funny thing is
You and I are getting by easy
Funny thing, funny thing is
You and I are getting by
