Lyrics

0:04The wound heals but it never does
0:06That's cause you're at war with love
0:09You're at war with love yeah
0:13These battle scars don't look like they're fading
0:17Don't look like they're ever going away
0:21They ain't never gonna change
0:23This battle
0:26Never let a wound ruin me
0:28But I feel like ruin's wooing me
0:32Arrow holes they never close from cupid on a shooting spree
0:35Feeling stupid cause I know it ain't no you and me
0:38But when you're trying to beat the odds up
0:40Been trying to keep your nods up
0:41And you know that you should know
0:43And let her go
0:44But the fear of the unknown
0:45Holding another lover strong
0:47Sends you back into the zone
0:48With no Tom Hanks to bring you home
0:51Another night of fighting
0:52On the frontline with a poem
0:54Trying to write yourself a rifle
0:56Maybe sharpen up a stone
0:57To fight the tanks and drones of you being alone
0:59I wish I never looked I wish I never touched
1:02I wish that I could stop loving you so much
1:04Cause I'm the only one that's trying to keep us together
1:07When all of the signs say that I should forget her
1:10I wish you weren't the best the best I ever had
1:13I wish that the good outweighed the bad
1:16Cause it'll never be over until you tell me it's over
1:21These battle scars don't look like they're fading
1:26Don't look like they're ever going away
1:29They ain't never gonna change
1:32These battle scars don't look like they're fading
1:37Don't look like they're ever going away
1:40They ain't never gonna change
1:43These battle
1:47You shouldn't have but you said it
1:48And I hope you never come back
1:50It shouldn't have happened but you let it
1:52Now you're down on the ground screaming medic
1:54The only thing that comes is the post-traumatic stresses
1:57Shields body armors and vests don't properly work
2:01That's why you're in a locker full of hurt
2:03The enemy within and all the fires from your friends
2:05The best medicine is to probably just let her win
2:08I wish I couldn't feel I wish I couldn't love
2:10I wish that I could stop cause it hurts so much
2:13And I'm the only one that's trying to keep us together
2:16When all of the signs say that I should forget her
2:19I wish you weren't the best the best I ever had
2:22I wish that the good outweighed the bad
2:25Cause it'll never be over until you tell me it's over
2:30These battle scars don't look like they're fading
2:34Don't look like they're ever going away
2:37They ain't never gonna change
2:40These battle scars don't look like they're fading
2:46Don't look like they're ever going away
2:49They ain't never gonna change
2:52These battle
2:54Cause you've set me on fire
2:58I've never felt so alive yeah
3:01Hoping wounds heal but it never does
3:03That's because you're at war with love
3:07And I'm at the point of breaking
3:09And it's impossible to shake it
3:15See you hoped the wound heals but it never does
3:20That's cause you're at war with love
3:24Hope it heals but it never does
3:26That's cause you're at war with love
3:28These battle scars don't look like they're fading
3:33Don't look like they're ever going away
3:35They ain't never gonna change
3:38These battle scars don't look like they're fading
3:43Don't look like they're ever going away
3:46They ain't never gonna change

The wound heals but it never does
That's cause you're at war with love
You're at war with love  yeah
These battle scars  don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
This battle
Never let a wound ruin me
But I feel like ruin's wooing me
Arrow holes  they never close from cupid on a shooting spree
Feeling stupid cause I know it ain't no you and me
But when you're trying to beat the odds up
Been trying to keep your nods up
And you know that you should know
And let her go
But the fear of the unknown
Holding another lover strong
Sends you back into the zone
With no Tom Hanks to bring you home
Another night of fighting
On the frontline with a poem
Trying to write yourself a rifle
Maybe sharpen up a stone
To fight the tanks and drones of you being alone
I wish I never looked  I wish I never touched
I wish that I could stop loving you so much
Cause I'm the only one that's trying to keep us together
When all of the signs say that I should forget her
I wish you weren't the best  the best I ever had
I wish that the good outweighed the bad
Cause it'll never be over  until you tell me it's over
These battle scars  don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle scars  don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle
You shouldn't have but you said it
And I hope you never come back
It shouldn't have happened but you let it
Now you're down on the ground screaming medic
The only thing that comes is the post-traumatic stresses
Shields  body armors and vests don't properly work
That's why you're in a locker full of hurt
The enemy within and all the fires from your friends
The best medicine is to probably just let her win
I wish I couldn't feel  I wish I couldn't love
I wish that I could stop cause it hurts so much
And I'm the only one that's trying to keep us together
When all of the signs say that I should forget her
I wish you weren't the best  the best I ever had
I wish that the good outweighed the bad
Cause it'll never be over  until you tell me it's over
These battle scars  don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle scars  don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle
Cause you've set me on fire
I've never felt so alive  yeah
Hoping wounds heal  but it never does
That's because you're at war with love
And I'm at the point of breaking
And it's impossible to shake it
See  you hoped the wound heals  but it never does
That's cause you're at war with love
Hope it heals  but it never does
That's cause you're at war with love
These battle scars  don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle scars  don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle scars  don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle
