Battle Scars
Chase Your Words Lyrics

How was I to know that I would fall this fast
I didn't expect to fall in love so quickly.

How am I to know if we could make this last
I'm not sure if our relationship will endure.

Who I am I to say that we will be okay
I can't promise that everything will be fine.

If you just tried, believe in us, yeah we’ll be fine
If we both put effort into the relationship, we can make it work.

But you’re so skeptical
You don't trust in our relationship.

Got caught up in this situation
You're unsure of how to handle our relationship.

Oh how I wish that you were mine
I wish we were more committed to each other.

Oh I wish I was on your radar
I wish you were paying more attention to me.

No matter what I do, it’s always too far
I feel like I'm putting in all the effort and it's not reciprocated.

I thought that I was setting the stage
I believed that I was creating a strong foundation for our relationship.

But I'm not on the page of your radar
You're not giving our relationship the attention it needs.

And I don’t no more battle scars
I don't want to keep getting hurt in this relationship.

And can you keep a secret
Can I trust you with confidential information?

I’ll tell you anyway
I'll share my secret with you, regardless.

I don't care if you keep it
I don't mind if you tell others my secret.

I felt the shift the very first day
I noticed a change in our relationship from the beginning.

I felt the spark within your touch
I was attracted to you from the moment we first touched.

I’m probably saying way too much
I might be oversharing my feelings and thoughts.

But darling, why is it nothing’s good enough
I feel like I'm not meeting your expectations, no matter what I do.

Cause you’re still skeptical
You're still not fully trusting in our relationship.

And I’m getting so impatient
I'm getting tired of waiting for our relationship to progress.

Tired of feeling all alone
I'm lonely in this relationship.

And every time try to be real
Every time I try to be honest and genuine with you.

You always ask me what is your deal
You question my thoughts and feelings.

Is there a way to reveal
Can I find a way to express myself more openly?

What's inside that you conceal
What emotions am I hiding from you?

Now you got me asking
Your questioning has made me start to question myself.

How do you feel
What are your true emotions towards me and our relationship?

No I don’t want no more battle scars
I don't want to keep getting hurt in this relationship.

Battle Scars
The emotional pain caused by this troubled relationship.
