Love and War
my mind's too weary, even for dreams
would anyone keep me, or choose to leave?
battlefield, land mines, hand grenades
sabotage, espionage, it's not okay
(pre chorus)
guess I signed a peace treaty as you declared war
not on the same page like we seemed before
offered trust but you'd rather be decieving
tried my best to save you while I was breaking
(chorus)
my worst enemy, I let you in
gave you all my codes and secrets and then
you turned your back on me
crippled me with poison
cause I wasn't want you wanted, still I
thought my heart couldn't be caught but
you said all's fair in love and war,
this time I'm not so sure
I could call you up for another round
of twisted truth or dare you to take me down
if you wanted a fight that's what i'm ready for
said I wasn't enough, that you needed more
well come on, what's wrong?
are you scared I've grown too strong?
maybe it's best you stay gone
(pre chorus)
(chorus)
done with the memory, won't let you in
I've changed the locks and built up the walls
you just gave up back then
I call it divine intervention
cause you weren't want I needed, now I
think my heart's stopped bleeding but
you said all's fair in love and war,
I'll never be sure
would anyone keep me, or choose to leave?
