A battlefield of broken dreams transparent in its core
Hypnotically ripping through the seams
Fire by fire, shot by shot
Bleeding from the chambers of the heart
Painfully revealing the never ending plot
Unable to believe this is the easy part
Paradise now stained with blood
Look at each battle that was never won
Waiting for the shores to flood
Darkness that forever blocks the sun
Escaping tranquility of night
Overcoming the great divide
Excepting its cruel delight
Even when two hearts collide

Playing my position as you come into view
Memories calling me back
Knowing no way to talk this through
Closing out distractions to keep me on track
Trigger in my hand
Straight line of sight
Swallowing my worries and doubts
For a moment of silence I might find the easy way out
One step closer... But still too far

Grabbing my hand so strong and true
Instantly healing each and every scar
And finally saying "I DO"
Love may be war but it is bittersweet
Right down to the core
A battle that can never be won
Fighting a temptation that the heart has done
Every day getting better even though it's still hard
It's always better to love even when you have to fight
There is no greater gift so hold on with all your might.
