Battle You
Verse 1
To much at stake
River of our love
Running dry
Trying to plug it up
Keeping it tight
Don't think we will survive
Attitudes
Fights
You are wrongs
And I am rights
So sick of the childish talks
We are both grown
But instead you just walk
Pull me back
In your arms
Tell me we will be okay
But I laugh
Cause I am one step away
Chorus
If I got to play the accordion
I'll play it swell
When I have to play guitar
I'll play the bass
If I have to play the choir
Give me the harmonizer
But if I got battle you
What can I choose
Yeah
Don't want to battle you
If I play the dealer
I can make the cards right
If I take the gamble
I am going for the win
If I got to be the carpenter
I'll also play the sculptor
But to Battle you
I can't do
To much to lose
Yeah I don't got to battle you
Verse 2
You slamming things down
Making your voice heard now
Man you better slow it down
Don't make me have to get ugly
I don't want to go another round
It's becoming messy
But still you yelling
My head is spinning
And I don't even want to know
Where you been
Who you were with
I just want you to hold me
But then its hurts
Why isn't my love enough
Chorus
If I got to play the accordion
I'll play it swell
When I have to play guitar
I'll play the bass
If I have to play the choir
Give me the harmonizer
But if I got battle you
What can I choose
Yeah
Don't want to battle you
If I play the dealer
I can make the cards right
If I take the gamble
I am going for the win
If I got to be the carpenter
I'll also play the sculptor
But to Battle you
I can't do
To much to lose
Yeah I don't got to battle you
Bridge
I'm heading out
You pull me back
Say we can fix it
But I am unclear
What we can do from here
Just let me go
Live you life like that
But I can't stay
Not like this
Chorus
If I got to play the accordion
I'll play it swell
When I have to play guitar
I'll play the bass
If I have to play the choir
Give me the harmonizer
But if I got battle you
What can I choose
Yeah
Don't want to battle you
If I play the dealer
I can make the cards right
If I take the gamble
I am going for the win
If I got to be the carpenter
I'll also play the sculptor
But to Battle you
I can't do
To much to lose
Yeah I don't got to battle you

Author's Note
My inspiration is my experiences of the recent past when I was in love alone and had to battle the man I loved constantly. I refused and walked away. But Love can be a battle and sometimes the worst kind. So choose not to battle the person you love and care about. Because in the end you both lose. If she/he don't want to be with you. There is better out there for you.

Nicely done. I would work on separating the verses from chorus, but that is all I see. Very good job. Well Penned.
