War Torn

Maybe ive been fooling myself
for thinking you should come back
and my last letter's going to break
all of the bridges we've spent years to make
all i can do is explain
all of the reasons i cannot stay
ive been to the front lines
and now there's no trace of hope left inside
ive been taken too far
i cracked when i tried to press my luck
hoping you'd come pick me up
but my heart is war torn, war torn
if one's born into battle
and doesnt know any other kind of life
how could the battle seem so bad
when its all you've known and all you've had
ive been taken too far
i cracked when i tried to press my luck
hoping you'd come pick me up
but my heart is war torn
war torn
this love is war torn
