Lyrics
Deep inside the trenches
Ducking bombs and low blows
No white flag will fly tonight
We can't back down and we won't let go
Saying things we never meant
To foster enemy descent
And we both lose hope
Release receding back to different corners
We both lost this round
We pick up the pieces scattered 'round
On this battleground
With every fight we come so far
We still have pride behind the scars
With you I am so much more
I'd never live with half my heart
We're better together than apart
If love is worth fights for
This means war
Reload ammunition
Come at me with all you've got
That which doesn't kill us
Gives us strength in every shot
Release receding back to different corners
We both lost this round
We pick up the pieces scattered 'round
On this battleground
With every fight we come so far
We still have pride behind the scars
With you I am so much more
I'd never live with half my heart
We're better together than apart
If love is worth fights for
This means war
Come out from the bunkers palms out
I'm giving up on fighting and I just want to love you now
With every fight we come so far
We still have pride behind the scars
With you I am so much more
I'd never live with half my heart
We're better together than apart
If love is worth fights for
This means war
