Bodies as Battlefields - Burning Hearts

Beating, aching, hurting, breaking

Beating, aching, hurting, breaking

Beating, aching, hurting, breaking

Our bodies

Were not meant to

Operate as battlefields

Year after year they have to deal

With all the aching of wounded hearts

Inside my walk-in closet

A collection of shields

Now collecting dust

See how these scars cover my arms

And hearts keep beating, hurting, ah-ah-ah

It’s just a bad dream

I’m in a battlefield

It’s just a bad dream

I’m in a battlefield of love

Beating, aching, hurting, breaking

Beating, aching, hurting, breaking

Beating, aching, hurting, breaking

Beating, aching, hurting, breaking

Healing all wounds

They take too much time

Longing for endless CPR

Blood after tears, year after year

Our hearts keep beating, hurting, ah-ah-ah (unreal)

It’s just a bad dream

I’m in a battlefield (of love, unreal)

It’s just a bad dream

I’m in a battlefield of love

Beating, aching, hurting, breaking

Beating, aching, hurting, breaking

Beating, aching, hurting, breaking

Beating, aching, hurting, breaking

Beating, aching, hurting, breaking

Beating, aching, hurting, breaking

Beating, aching, hurting, breaking

Beating, aching, hurting, breaking

Beating, aching, hurting, breaking

Beating, aching, hurting, breaking

Beating, aching, hurting, breaking

Beating, aching, hurting, breaking

Beating, aching, hurting, breaking

It’s just a bad dream

Beating, aching, hurting, breaking

Beating, aching, hurting, breaking

It’s just a bad dream

I’m in a battlefield of love
