Lyrics
someone said love’s like a war
and my heart broke out the guns and sharpened the swords
practiced its battle cry in the mirror on the door
oh heart, do you really know what you’re fighting anymore?
heart, do you really know why you’re trying anymore?
someone said love’s like a war
and my mind turned pacifist, like rhetoric’s the cure
carried a home-made sign saying
I refuse to fight, I refuse to cry
and really, what exactly are you dying for?
do they ever tell you what you’re dying for?
my heart polished its armor
as my mind took to the streets
there’s danger now on every turn
while the army marches and the flags all burn
and you are still just out of reach
someone said love’s like a war
and my heart loaded the guns and unsheathed the swords
applied its war paint in the mirror on the door
oh heart, do you really know what you’re doing anymore?
who do you really think you’re fooling anymore?
someone said love’s like a war, and we touch our scars
now how much peace can we endure if we’ve come this far?
I know it’s dangerous to say that I feel the same
but isn’t that the reason that I came?
someone said love’s like a war
and my mind turned pacifist, and sank into the floor
grabbed a pen, wrote out a sign-
I refuse to fight, I refuse to cry
and my heart looked skeptical and asked- now are you sure?
took the safety off and asked me softly- are you sure?
