I’m sinkin inside
And the maps and lines are broken down tonight
I swallow my pride
But we’re drowning in the ocean
And it’s tearing my heart open baby
Baby we're high then we're low, first it's yes then it's no,
And we're changing like the tides
Yeah, but I want you, I need you,
And I guarantee you we'll make it out alive
'Cause I don't wanna fight no more,
Even when the waves get rough
I don't wanna see the day we say we've had enough
And I don't wanna fight this war
Bullets coming off our lips
But we stick to our guns and we love like battleships
Like battleships
Boom boom boom b-boom boom boom
Boom boom boom b-boom
And the cannon goes
Boom boom boom b-boom boom boom
Boom boom boom b-boom
And the cannon goes
Bombs fly through the air
And I know that we’re both playing not so fair
Ohh, show, show me you care
I got my white flag open and it’s waving
‘Cause you know this love’s worth saving baby
We're high then we're low, first it's yes then it's no,
And we're changing like the tides
Yeah, but I want you, I need you,
And I guarantee you we'll make it out alive
'Cause I don't wanna fight no more,
Even when the waves get rough
I don't wanna see the day we say we've had enough
And I don't wanna fight this war
Bullets coming off our lips
But we stick to our guns and we love like battleships
Like battleships
Boom boom boom b-boom boom boom
Boom boom boom b-boom
And the cannon goes
Boom boom boom b-boom boom boom
Boom boom boom b-boom
And we love, yeah we love
(Boom boom boom b-boom)
And we love, yeah we love
(Boom boom boom b-boom)
I’m sinkin inside
Can we finally put our weapons down tonight?
'Cause I don't wanna fight no more,
Even when the waves get rough
I don't wanna see the day we say we've had enough
And I don't wanna fight this war
Bullets coming off our lips
But we stick to our guns and we love like battleships
Like battleships
Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom, boom, boom
Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom
And the cannon goes
Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom, boom, boom
Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom
And the cannon goes
Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom, boom, boom
Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom
And the cannon goes
Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom, boom, boom
Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom
And we love like battleships
