Don't try to explain your mind I know what's happening here One minute, it's love And, suddenly, it's like a battlefield
One word turns into a Why is it the smallest things that tear us down My world's nothing when you're gone I'm out here without a shield - can't go back, now
Both hands tied behind my back for nothing, oh, no These times when we climb so fast To fall, again Why we gotta fall for it, now...
[Chorus:] I never meant to start a war You know, I never wanna hurt you Don't even know we're fighting for Why does love always feel like a battlefield, a battlefield, a battlefield Why does love always feel like a battlefield, a battlefield, a battlefield Why does love always feel like
Can't swallow our pride Neither of us wanna raise that flag, mmm If we can't surrender Then, we're both gonna lose we have, oh, no
Both hands tied behind my back for nothing, oh, no These times when we climb so fast To fall, again I don't wanna fall for it, now...
