After This War Lyrics
I felt your love slip away
You know you shouldn't want to stay
Tell me why you disappeared
And why you've come back here
It hurts to have you here
The roaring silence fills the air
I gotta get myself out of here
Spilling coffee on my shoe, I shiver cause of you
My heart turns black and blue
How can I be with you after this war
My feelings are sour... baby
Why did you come back to hurt me some more
This is after the war
Now in this war I can't pretend
And our souls can never mend
This has to be the end
I've got to leave it all behind
On my way to another life - My new life
I have to go... oh baby
How can I be with you after this war
My feelings are sour... baby
Why did you come back to hurt me some more
This is after the war
Why did you come back
Please let me know, I don't understand
Why did you hurt me again
This is after the war... and I can't let you go
You know you shouldn't want to stay
Tell me why you disappeared
And why you've come back here
It hurts to have you here
I gotta get myself out of here
Spilling coffee on my shoe, I shiver cause of you
My heart turns black and blue
My feelings are sour... baby
Why did you come back to hurt me some more
This is after the war
And our souls can never mend
This has to be the end
I've got to leave it all behind
On my way to another life - My new life
My feelings are sour... baby
Why did you come back to hurt me some more
This is after the war
Please let me know, I don't understand
Why did you hurt me again
This is after the war... and I can't let you go

It's a girl that he once had a relationship with that he used to be over, but now she's returned and he lusts for her again. The "war" is a metaphor for the downsides of their relationship.
