Battle Scars Songtext
von Guy Sebastian

Ho-ho-ho-hope the wound heals but it never does
That′s cause you're at war with love
You′re at war with love, yeah

These battle scars don't look like they're fading
Don′t look like they′re ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle


Never let a wound ruin me
But I feel like ruin′s wooing me
Arrow holes, they never close from Cupid on a shooting spree
Feeling stupid cause I know it ain't no you and me
But when you′re trying to beat the odds up
Been trying to keep your nods up
And you know that you should know
And let her go but the fear of the unknown
Hold her on another lover's phone
Sends you back into the zone (Go!)
With no Tom Hanks to bring you home
A lover not a fighter on the front line with a poem
Trying to write yourself a rifle, maybe sharpen up a stone
To fight the tanks and drones of you being alone

I wish I never looked, I wish I never touched
I wish that I could stop loving you so much
Cause I′m the only one that's trying to keep us together (Yeah)
When all of the signs say that I should forget her (Hun hun)
I wish you weren't the best
The best I ever had (Hey)
I wish that the good outweighed the bad (Yeah)
Cause it′ll never be over (never be over)
Until you tell me it′s over (until you tell me it's over)

These battle (yeah) scars don′t look like they're fading
Don′t look like they're ever going away
They ain′t never gonna change
These battle scars don't look like they're fading
Don′t look like they′re ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle


(Then just leave then)
You shouldn′t have but you said it
(And I hope you never come back)
It shouldn't have happened but you let it
Now you′re down on the ground screaming medic (Yeah)
The only thing that comes is the post-traumatic stresses (Hoo)
Shields, body armors and vests don't properly work
That′s why you're in a locker full of hurt
The enemy within and all the fires from your friends
The best medicine's to probably just let her win (Hoo)

I wish I couldn′t feel, I wish I couldn′t love
I wish that I could stop cause it hurts so much (So much)
And I'm the only one that′s trying to keep us together (Yeah)
When all of the signs say that I should forget her (Yeah)
I wish you weren't the best (Best), the best I ever had (Hey)
I wish that the good outweighed the bad (Hun hun)
Cause it′ll never be over (cause it'll never be over)
Until you tell me it′s over (until you tell me it's over)

These battle scars don't look like they′re fading
Don′t look like they're ever going away
They ain′t never gonna change
These battle scars don't look like they′re fading
Don't look like they′re ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle

Cause you set me on fire (Fire)
I've never felt so alive, yeah

No, hoping wounds heal, but it never does
That′s because you′re at war with love

And I'm at the point of breaking (Hun hun)
And it′s impossible to shake it (Yeah)

See, you hoped the wound heals, but it never does
That's cause you′re at war with love
Hope it heals, but it never does
That's cause you′re at war with love!

These battle scars don't look like they're fading
Don′t look like they′re ever going away (Never)
I ain't ever gonna change (Never)
These battle scars (Yeah) don′t look like they're fading (Hun hun)
Don′t look like they're ever going away (Never)
They ain′t never gonna change (Never)
These battle scars don't look like they're fading (Hun hun)
Don′t look like they′re ever going away
I ain't never gonna change
These battle
