Battle Scars (with Guy Sebastian) |
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 ruins 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 |
