[Verse]
I wish I never looked I wish I never touched
I wish that I could stop coz it hurts so much
Coz I'm the only one trying to keep us together
When all of the signs say that I should forget her

I wish that the good outweighed the bad
Coz it'll never be over, until you tell me it over,

And I'm never gonna break it.
It's impossible to shake it.

[Hook]
Em C

D

These battle...
[Verse]
Em C
Never let a wound ruin me
G
But I feel like ruin's wooing me
D
Arrow holes, they never close from Cupid on a shooting spree
Em
Feeling stupid cause I know it ain't no you and me
But when you're trying to beat the odds up
C
Been trying to keep your nods up
G
And you know that you should know
And let her go
But the fear of the unknown
D
Hold another lover strong
Em
Sends you back into the zone
With no Tom Hanks to bring you home,
C
A lover not a fighter
G
On the front line with a poem,
Trying to write yourself a rifle
D
Maybe sharpen up a stone
To fight the tanks and drones of you being alone
[Pre-Hook]
Em
I wish I never looked, I wish I never touched
C
I wish that I could stop loving you so much
G
Cause I'm the only one that's trying to keep us together
D
When all of the signs say that I should forget her
Em
I wish you weren't the best, the best I ever had
C
I wish that the good outweighed the bad
G D
Cause it'll never be over, until you tell me it's over

These battle...
[Verse]
Em C
You shouldn't have but you said it
G
It shouldn't have happened but you let it
Now you're down on the ground screaming medic
D
The only thing that comes is the post-traumatic stresses
Em C
Shields, body armors and vests don't properly work
That's why you're in a locker full of hurt
G
The enemy within and all the fires from your friends
D
The best medicine's to probably just let it win
[Pre-Hook]
Em
I wish I couldn't feel, I wish I couldn't love
C
I wish that I could stop cause it hurts so much
G
And I'm the only one that's trying to keep us together

G
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

And it's impossible to shake it (yeah)
