Battlefield

(album: Portraits - 2023)

I could brace, I could brace hard
Brace my heart for the big gun
I don't want, I don't want to, my love
I just want you to stay

Tried to keep you in my dreams
Tried to bottle with the kiss
Trading kisses with the stars
They won't listen, no one does
Tried to hold you with my word
Laid it down to offer all
But there's no saying words enough

'Cause out here, it's a battlefield
No savior, no yield
Out here, it's a raging war
Is anyone counting tears at all?
Out here, it's a battlefield
We can't always get what we want

Where do we go from here?
The hostage's on the run (Ooh, ooh)
Where do we go from here?
When the lost side reached the sun (Ooh, ooh)
And when you broke me here
How can we be apart? (Ooh, ooh)

'Cause out here, it's a battlefield
No savior, no yield
Out here, it's a raging war
Is anyone counting tears at all?

Out here, it's a battlefield
No savior, no yield
Out here, it's a raging war
Is anyone counting tears at all?

Out here, it's a battlefield, ooh
Out here, it's a battlefield, ooh
Out here, it's a battlefield
We can't always get what we want
