The Art of War
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Am I the latest
In your art of war?
Thought your hands could heal
But they left me sore
You're so good, at what you think you do to me
You're so good, at what you think you do to me
There are songs I'll never write
Because of you, barking out of my life
There are words that don't belong
Because of you, I'll never write another love song
Words are the greatest
In your arsenal
Or just the latest in your art of war
Your art of war
You're no good, at what you said you'd do to me
You're no good, at what you said you'd do to me
There are songs (there are songs) I'll never write
Because of you, walking out of my life
There are words (there are words) that don't belong
Because of you, I'll never write another love song
(Never write another love song)
There are songs (there are songs), I'll never write
Because of you, barking out of my life
There are words (there are words) that don't belong
Because of you, I'll never write another love song
(never write another love song)
There are songs, I'll never write
Because of you, barking out of my life
There are words, that don't belong
Because of you, I'll never write another love song
(Never write another love song)
