Enemy Lines (Stripped)

Doesn't take much to see you're hurting, my dear
The story's written in your eyes
The past you're hiding from just won't disappear
It breaks you down inside

You fear the life you have will burn down in flames
If you become too satisfied
You disconnect so no one else feels the pain
To keep the casualties lowered in the fight

But what you don't know is

I wanna go to war for you
No matter what we're up against
I promise I'll keep fighting this

You've been at battle with yourself for a while
Without an end within your sight
A restless tug of war you're caught in between
And it keeps you up at night

I wanna go to war for you
No matter what we're up against
I promise I'll keep fighting this
I don't wanna see the other side
Unless you're standing next to me
'Cause it won't ever be a victory without you

Don't give up, not without a fight
I'll go behind enemy lines
To make sure you will be alright
Don't give up, not without a fight
I'll go behind enemy lines
To make sure you will be alright

There isn't much that I can offer my dear
No guaranteed fortune or fame
But I'll live a normal life if it's spent with you
And we'll conquer every battle day by day

I wanna go to war for you
No matter what we're up against
I promise I'll keep fighting this
I don't wanna see the other side
Unless you're standing next to me
'Cause none of this means anything without you
