The wound heals but it never does
|
That¡¯s cause you¡¯re at war with love
|
You're at war with love, yeah
|
|
These battle scars, don¡¯t look like they¡¯re fading
|
Don¡¯t look like they¡¯re ever going away
|
They ain't never gonna change
|
These battle
|
|
Never let a wound ruin me
|
But I feel like ruin's wooing me
|
Arrow holes that never close from cupid on a shooting spree
|
Feeling stupid cause I know it ain't no you and me
|
But when you're trying to beat the odds up
|
Been trying to keep your nods up and you know that you should know
|
And let her go but the fear of the unknown
|
Holding another lover strong sends you back into the zone
|
With no Tom Hanks to bring you home
|
A lover not a fighter on the frontline with a poem
|
Trying to write yourself a rifle
|
Maybe sharpen up a song
|
To fight the tanks and drones of you being alone
|
|
I wish I never looked, I wish I never touched
|
I wish that I could stop loving you so much
|
Cause I¡¯m the only one that's trying to keep us together
|
When all of the signs say that I should forget her
|
I wish you weren¡¯t the best, the best I ever had
|
I wish that the good outweighed the bad
|
Cause it¡¯ll never be over, until you tell me it's over
|
|
These battle scars, don¡¯t look like they¡¯re fading
|
Don¡¯t look like they¡¯re ever going away
|
They ain't never gonna change
|
These battle
|
|
(And just leave then)
|
You shouldn't have but you said it
|
(And I hope you never come back)
|
It shouldn't have happened but you let it
|
Now you're down on the ground screaming medic
|
The only thing that comes is the post-traumatic stresses
|
Shields, body armors and vests
|
Don't properly work, that's why you're in a locker full of hurt
|
The enemy within and all the fires from your friends
|
The best medicine is to probably just let her win
|
|
I wish I couldn't feel, I wish I couldn't love
|
I wish that I could stop cause it hurts so much
|
And I¡¯m the only one that's trying to keep us together
|
When all of the signs say that I should forget her
|
I wish you weren¡¯t the best, the best I ever had
|
I wish that the good outweighed the bad
|
Cause it¡¯ll never be over, until you tell me it's over
|
|
These battle scars, don¡¯t look like they¡¯re fading
|
Don¡¯t look like they¡¯re ever going away
|
They ain't never gonna change
|
These battle
|
|
I wish I couldn't feel, I wish I couldn't love
|
I wish that I could stop cause it hurts so much
|
And I¡¯m the only one that's trying to keep us together
|
When all of the signs say that I should forget her
|
I wish you weren¡¯t the best, the best I ever had
|
I wish that the good outweighed the bad
|
Cause it¡¯ll never be over, until you tell me it's over
|
|
Cause you've set me on fire
|
I¡¯ve never felt so alive, yeah
|
|
Hoping wounds heal, but it never does
|
That's because you're at war with love
|
|
And I¡¯m at the point of breaking
|
And it¡¯s impossible to shake it
|
|
See, you hoped the wound heals, but it never does
|
That's cause you're at war with love
|
Hope it heals, but it never does
|
That's cause you're at war with love!
|
|
These battle scars, don¡¯t look like they¡¯re fading
|
Don¡¯t look like they¡¯re ever going away
|
They ain't never gonna change
|
These battle
|
|
|
These battle scars, don¡¯t look like they¡¯re fading
|
Don¡¯t look like they¡¯re ever going away
|
They ain't never gonna change
|
These battle
