Battlefield

It's easy to fall in love
But it's so hard to break somebody's heart
What seemed like a good idea
Has turned into a battlefield.

Once, lust has turned to dust
And all that's left's held breath
Forgotten who we first met
What seemed like a good idea
Has turned into a battlefield.

We both know it's coming
Does illusion count for something real?
The surface tension's gotta break,
One drop is all it takes to flood out this lie.

You and I
We have to let it each other go
We keep holding on but we both know
What seemed like a good idea
Has turned into a battlefield.

Peace will come when
One of us puts down the guns
Be strong for both of us
No please, don't run, don't run
Eye to eye, we face our fears
Unarmed on the battlefield.

What seemed like a good idea
What seemed like a good idea.

No blood will spill if we would get out
Now, still it's hard to put the fire out
What seemed like a good idea
Has turned into a battlefield
Feelings are shifting like the tide
And I think too much about the future
What seemed like a good idea
Has turned into a battlefield.

We both know it's coming
Does illusion count for something real?
The surface tension's gotta break,
One drop is all it takes to flood out this lie.

You and I
We have to let it each other go
We keep holding on but we both know
What seemed like a good idea
Has turned into a battlefield.

Peace will come when one of us puts down the guns
Be strong for both of us
No please, don't run, don't run
Eye to eye, we face our fears
Unarmed on the battlefield.

What seemed like a good idea
What seemed like a good idea
What seemed like a good idea.
