Battles Lyrics by Patent Pending

Brighter

2013

[Verse 1]
Old news, same bruise
Every time I get with you it’s ending the same
Like there’s a target on my back
Like we’ve been playing heart attack
I try no matter what you’re winning the game
Cause there’s a flaw inside the system
Where I always play the victim
Have to pick myself up off of the ground
And though I’ve run my strategies
You always get the best of me
I’m going down
Damn
[Chorus]
You ripped a hole in my sky that’s big enough to swallow the moon
I had a bullet proof vest but damn you shot right through
And after all this time I lost my mind
Must have left it somewhere with you
I’ve got a hundred plus scars from the battles you drag me through
And still I always come back for you
[Verse 2]
Oh no, here we go
Every time I suck up for the way that you tease
Because you got me by the soul
I’m out here knocking on your door
And now I’m begging on my na-na-na-knees
A piece of you and your disease
Infecting every part of me
I’m sick whenever you’re not around
It just don’t matter what you do
I still can’t keep away from you
I’m going down
[Chorus]
You ripped a hole in my sky that’s big enough to swallow the moon
I had a bullet proof vest but damn you shot right through
And after all this time I lost my mind
Must have left it somewhere with you
I’ve got a hundred plus scars from the battles you drag me through
And still I always come back for you
[Bridge]
I try to clear my mind
Of what’s left behind
I’ve got these battle wounds
And still I always come back for you
[Chorus]
You ripped a hole in my sky that’s big enough to swallow the moon
I had a bullet proof vest but damn you shot right through
And after all this time I lost my mind
Must have left it somewhere with you
I’ve got a hundred plus scars from the battles you drag me through
And still I always come back for you
