 ]
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 war
 Why is it the smallest  things that tear  us down
My  world's nothing when  you're gone
 I'm not 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
 ]
 I never meant  to start a war
 You know I never  wanna hurt you
 Don't even know  what 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
If  we can't surrender  then we both gonna lose  what we had, oh no
 ]
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
 ]
 I never meant  to start a war
 You know I never  wanna hurt you
 Don't even know  what 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?
 I guess you better go and get your armor,  get your armor,  get your armor
 I guess you better  go and get your armor,  get your armor,  get your armor
 I guess you better  go and get your...
 ]
We  could pretend that we are friends  tonight, oh-oh-oh
And  in the morning we'll wake up  and we'll be alright
Cause  baby we don't have to fight
 And I  don't want this love to feel like..
 
 battlefield,  battlefield,  battlefield,
 Why does love  always feel like a battlefield,  a battlefield,  a battlefield
 I guess you better go and get your armor
 ]
 I never meant  to start a war
 You know I never  wanna hurt you
 Don't even know  what 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?
 I guess you better go and get your armor,  get your armor,  get your armor
 I guess you better  go and get your armor,  get your armor,  get your armor
 Why does love  always feel like..
