Battle Lines

Why does it feel like we’re doing hard time

Cause I don’t wanna live to die

you know baby I’m just dying to live, again

You and I

We were young, we were living wild

Been so long since I seen that smile

Something I can only get when I give, and

I know we said some things and we can take ‘em back

And you know you did some things, but I’m ok with that

I ain’t giving up on everything we used to have

And I can’t lose this fight

We’ve drawn these battle lines

Straight across our hearts

Why don’t we tear ‘em out

before we’re ripped apart

And we’ve got these battle scars,

They could fade with time

But they tell story of you and me

so I’m keeping mine

Just love, from the start, ever since day one

Held up me up like your laugh was a gun

So I put my heart in the bag for you, now I’m asking you

Can love be the thing that we focus on?

We ain’t gotta be a breakup song

Cause when it all goes down, you know that I’ll fight for you

I know we said some things and we can take ‘em back

And you know I did some things, are you ok with that?

Please don’t give up everything we used to have

we can’t lose this fight

We’ve drawn these battle lines

Straight across our hearts

Why don’t we tear ‘em out

before we’re ripped apart

And we’ve got these battle scars,

They could fade with time

But they tell story of you and me

so I’m keeping mine

Battle lines

I think it’s time we lose them

Battle lines

Let’s pick them up and move them

These aren’t just written lines

and I cross my heart

we gotta turn the page

And make a brand new start

Where we don’t need battle lines

Straight across our hearts

Why don’t we tear ‘em out

before we’re ripped apart

And we’ve got these battle scars,

They could fade with time

But they tell story of you and me

so I’m keeping mine
