Brenna Sahatjian – Conflict Will Never Cease Lyrics

I get so furiously restless
such a damn destructive storm brews in my chest
it drives me to gettin’ reckless
I know I'll act senseless before I can again rest

and the mud out here never quite dries up
and the fog out here never quite burns off
the men out here never quite shut up
and the women never meet me at the rendezvous spot
no the women never seem to show up at the spot

and when I rest I dream of wrecking
I go out and wreck ‘cause you know I really do want peace
not the peace they stick on their windows and their bumpers
but the peace in which it's understood that it's not that easy
yeah the peace in which it's understood that conflict will never cease

I get so unquenchably restless
and I'd swear my heart was a goddamn wrecking ball
I get so embarrassingly reckless
so sorry for what I said and did and heard and saw
I'm so sorry for what I said and did and heard and saw

and the rain out here it never quite lets up
the trees out here get heat just for standin’ up
and you my dear, you never do speak up
and where was I, you were waiting at the spot
oh where was I, you were waiting at the spot

I took a rest and dreamed of wrecking
I went out wrecking
but I know you know I do want peace
not the peace that read on all those shattered windows
but the peace in which it's understood that it could never be that easy
the peace in which it's understood that conflict will never cease
the peace in which it's understood we gotta take some responsibility
