Casualties of War
When I open my eyes, what did I see
Falling from the skies in front of me?
Not quite but close, as though I'd seen a ghost
Does it too much to feel the touch
Of someone that you couldn't love?
Or someone that comes and goes?
Oh
So how are you? I'm doing well
I'm fighting tears, you couldn't tell
I'm not as strong as you thought I was
When you fall down, do you hear the sound
Of broken dreams hitting the ground?
Baby, please, we're casualties of war
You lost the fight, I heard it was a good fight
The kind where no one wins and no one's right
I could've walked away, I should've walked away
You always had a habit of keeping score
You might have won the battle, but not the war
What goes around, comes around tenfold
So how are you? I'm doing well
I'm fighting tears, you couldn't tell
I'm not as strong as you thought I was
When you fall down, do you hear the sound
Of broken dreams hitting the ground?
Baby, please, we're casualties of war
Oh, oh
I knew it was
I lost the cause, I knew it was
Is there any rhyme or reason?
I knew it was
So how are you? I'm doing well
I'm fighting tears, you couldn't tell
I'm not as strong as you thought I was
When you fall down, do you hear the sound
Of broken dreams hitting the ground?
Baby, please, we're casualties of war
When you fall down, do you hear the sound
Of broken dreams hitting the ground?
Baby, please, we're casualties of war
Oh, oh
Falling from the skies in front of me?
Not quite but close, as though I'd seen a ghost
Does it too much to feel the touch
Of someone that you couldn't love?
Or someone that comes and goes?
Oh
So how are you? I'm doing well
I'm fighting tears, you couldn't tell
I'm not as strong as you thought I was
When you fall down, do you hear the sound
Of broken dreams hitting the ground?
Baby, please, we're casualties of war
You lost the fight, I heard it was a good fight
The kind where no one wins and no one's right
I could've walked away, I should've walked away
You always had a habit of keeping score
You might have won the battle, but not the war
What goes around, comes around tenfold
So how are you? I'm doing well
I'm fighting tears, you couldn't tell
I'm not as strong as you thought I was
When you fall down, do you hear the sound
Of broken dreams hitting the ground?
Baby, please, we're casualties of war
Oh, oh
I knew it was
I lost the cause, I knew it was
Is there any rhyme or reason?
I knew it was
So how are you? I'm doing well
I'm fighting tears, you couldn't tell
I'm not as strong as you thought I was
When you fall down, do you hear the sound
Of broken dreams hitting the ground?
Baby, please, we're casualties of war
When you fall down, do you hear the sound
Of broken dreams hitting the ground?
Baby, please, we're casualties of war
Oh, oh
