Love and War

[Verse 1: Thelma Plum]

In love and war, there's poetry and pain

And you can hate it and need it all the same

They can laugh and they can lock you in the dark

'Cause you're young and you're broke, but kid, you've got heart

[Pre-Chorus: Thelma Plum]

There's writing on the walls, but they can't read it

There's writing on the walls, but they can't read it

There's writing on the walls, but they can't read it

There's writing on the walls, but they can't read it

[Chorus: Thelma Plum]

Hold up your chin

Hold up your chin

Don't let them win

Yeah, you've got to hold

Up your chin

[Verse 2: David Le'aupepe]

I was taught to think that ignorance is bliss

And exceeding all the things that others miss

And my hiding heart was told to hold it in

Said, "Don't wear it hard, 'cause it's only skin"

[Pre-Chorus: Thelma Plum]

There's writing on the walls, but they can't read it

There's writing on the walls, but they can't read it

[Chorus: Thelma Plum]

Hold up your chin

Hold up your chin

Don't let them win

Yeah, you've got to hold

Up your chin

[Bridge: Thelma Plum]

They won't hang us dry

With our head in our hands

They won't hang us dry

With our head in our hands

[Chorus: Thelma Plum]

Hold up your chin

Hold up your chin

Don't let them win

Yeah, you've got to hold

Hold up your chin

Hold up your chin

Don't let them win

Yeah, you've got to hold

Up your chin
