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 that 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 on another lover's phone sends you back into the zone With no Tom Hanks to bring you home A lover not a fighter on the frontline with a poem Trying to write yourself a rifle Maybe sharpen up a song 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 (it never be over) Until you tell me it's 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 This battle (Then just leave then) 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 (could never be over) Until you tell me it's 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 ever gonna change This battle ('Cause you've set me on fire) (I've never felt so alive, yeah) No, 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 I ain't ever 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 (never) These battle scars, don't look like they're fading Don't look like they're ever going away I ain't ever gonna change This battle
