My Life's a Battlefield

Now our love is over life is a battlefield Guns are blazing out a trail of obscenities Right through my heart your bullets fly You don't notice if I cry or tears in my eye Life's a battlefield shouting and hurting but why Love was ours for the taking but now it's all gone You fire your bullets at me then I return fire Building me a fortress now out of razor wire My life's now a battlefield Guns and arrows blaze a trail Leading on to a love fail My life's now a battlefield Moving on we're still living in a battlefield When we meet our voices fire out obscenities Bullets ricocheting bring me to self destruct Hearts in pieces now love's gone it won't reconstruct Life's a battlefield all we ever do is fight Can't go on like this much more it's killing my soul One of us must bite the bullet soon and just go This is the end for love and everything we know Fire those arrows at me straight and true Keep on firing now loves gone we're through Shoot me straight between my eyes, go on This battlefield is fatal to me now, I'm gone My life's now a battlefield Guns and arrows blaze a trail Leading on to a love fail My life's now a battlefield Jane Shields 12th November 2016
