You were patient from the start Always careful with my heart Like you knew that something in me Was already torn apart You said maybe in time I would finally let you in But there’s ghosts inside my silence And they always seem to win You were collateral damage In a war you didn’t start Standing in the crossfire Of somebody else’s heart You were collateral damage And I wish it wasn’t true But loving me was risky Long before I met you You deserved a different ending Not a half-truth in the dark Not a girl still chasing shadows Through the ruins of her heart You kept saying I was worth it I kept knowing you were wrong Some people get forever Some just get the song You were collateral damage In a war you didn’t start Standing in the crossfire Of somebody else’s heart You were collateral damage And I wish it wasn’t true But loving me was risky Long before I met you I tried to give you something But I never had enough Some hearts come in pieces Some just call it love You were collateral damage And I’m sorry that it’s true.
