Why Conquer? Lyrics - Singles - Ludicra

When you paint this town red 

Why not do it from your veins? 

Let torrential tears of silver salt 

Wash away the stains 

Be not concerned with petty things 

Like pain or shame or fear 

Let these gutters swallow secrets your simple self held dear 

Free the buried stones 

When the last call has bled you thin 

Rest on the shoulders of every sin 

Remember there's no endeavor 

Worth all the worry of the dour mind 

When you yearn to switch the light to dim 

This known condition will not detain you 

From the sunrise of each day of blame 

From the sunset and each night in vain, each night insane 

Why conquer? Why solve? 

Why conquer what cannot evolve? 

If you pick apart the one who bellows fire under everyone 

Time will not heal the hearts of the dumb 

When you paint this town red, why not do it from your veins?
