Destroyer - No Cease Fires! (Crimes Against The State Of Our Love, Baby) Lyrics

"Think globally. Act Nobly.
The ties that bind us blind us."
I know that's what they told you,
and you know that that's not true.
When my heart becomes golden,
you will show them and then
show them what to do.
But for now:
assail, and assaults,
the divides, and the faults.
This must be all that we think of.

There is no time to stop and admire the Admirals
when we still have Lieutenants to kill.
There is no time to see it in another vein
or, perhaps, a different light.
There are too many things
I want you
I want you
I want you
I want you to do.

"The new Hunter-Kings
of Summers and Springs;
they walk beside us to guide us."
I know that's what they told you,
and you know that that's not true.
When their hearts unfold, pick out the black.
It's the silver ones far between the few.
But for now:
assail, and assaults the divides and the faults.
This must be all that we think of.

There is no time to stop and admire the Admirals
when we still have Lieutenants to kill.
There is no time to see it in another vein.
Shed another way of light.
There are too many things
I want you
I want you
I want you

I want no cease-fires! No cease-fires!
Let there be no history tonight!
These are crimes against the State of Our Love now, baby.
No cease-fires! No cease-fires!
These are crimes against the State of Our Love.
Place your hand in my hand.
Discover the millennia this way.
Here comes The Day
