War of the Worlds Lyrics by Makeba Riddick

0

[Verse 1]
It was 11:45 in the evening
I had a bottle opened up on the floor
I was thinking maybe I must be dreaming
How could you show up? I said leave me alone
[Pre-Chorus]
How could you do it? And there you go again
Screaming and cussing like you're out of your head
It's gonna lead us both right over the edge
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
[Chorus]
All I can see is burning bridges and there's smoke in the air
It's just the war of the worlds (Of the worlds)
I wish I could escape, but then you follow me there
It's just the war of the worlds (Of the worlds)
And I'm not yours and I mean it
That's why I built this wall in between us
We're running where we end up, baby
I don't know where
It's just the war of the worlds
It's just the war of the worlds
[Post-Chorus]
Of the worlds, of the worlds, of the worlds
Of the worlds, of the worlds, of the worlds
[Verse 2]
The battery inside me is empty
Somebody must've pulled out the plug
Your whispers to me used to be tempting
But nowadays, not so much
[Pre-Chorus]
Love is a picture, we don't see it the same
The sun is shining, you only see the rain
It's gonna lead us both right into the flames
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
[Chorus]
All I can see is burning bridges and there's smoke in the air
It's just the war of the worlds (Of the worlds)
I wish I could escape, but then you follow me there
It's just the war of the worlds (Of the worlds)
And I'm not yours and I mean it
That's why I built this wall in between us
We're running where we end up, baby
I don't know where
It's just the war of the worlds
It's just the war of the worlds
It's just the war of the worlds
[Bridge]
Of the worlds, of the worlds, of the worlds, of the worlds
Of the worlds, of the worlds, of the worlds, of the worlds
Of the worlds, of the worlds, of the worlds, of the worlds
Of the worlds, of the worlds, of the worlds, of the worlds
Of the worlds, of the worlds, of the worlds, of the worlds
Of the worlds, of the worlds, of the worlds, of the worlds
[Pre-Chorus]
How could you do it? And there you go again
Screaming and cussing like you're out of your head
It's gonna lead us both right over the edge
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
[Chorus]
All I can see is burning bridges and there's smoke in the air
It's just the war of the worlds (Of the worlds)
I wish I could escape, but then you follow me there
It's just the war of the worlds (Of the worlds)
And I'm not yours and I mean it
That's why I built this wall in between us
We're running where we end up, baby
I don't know where
It's just the war of the worlds
It's just the war of the worlds
It's just the war of the worlds
