Battlefield

My heart's like a battlefield
So I should leave you for a while
I can promise you the world now
And then miss you by a mile

My heart is like a battlefield
And I might twist into the wild
But I would gladly hit the ground now
If that meant you'd be alright

So how do you distinguish hope from stupidity
By watering a dying garden?

My heart is like a battlefield
Under clouds of shades in grey
Someday guilt will hit us out loud
It will keep us both awake

What about us
And the blood that we carry?
We should be praying
For the love that we buried

What about us
In the wake of the battle?
Stained little creatures
Forsake what they preaching
And kill for a medal

Walking on a thin line
Tightrope side to side
Caught between friendly fire
Looking out to the sides
Stare the devil in the eye
Break away from all the ties
Cheating death in disguise
Made my way to paradise

Walking on a thin line
Tightrope side to side
Caught between friendly fire
Looking out to the sides
Stare the devil in the eye
Break away from all the ties
Cheating death in disguise
Made my way to paradise

Made my way to paradise
