[Intro] (Slow, melancholic piano chords, soft vinyl crackle) Mmm... yeah... Is it love... or just an instinct? Listen... [Verse 1] [Slow Melodic Rap] Birds on the table, looking for a crumb We play these dirty games until our hearts go numb... (Mmm) It’s the law of the wild, yeah, we know the deal Blaming each other for the pain we feel You and I the same – the hunter and the prey Our love is like a war zone every single day I built up a wall, made of ice and stone But you know my secrets, you know every bone No more questions, I got nothing to say Your love is a prison, but I cannot walk away... (Oh-oh) [Chorus] [Very Sad, Slow and Emotional] My mind tells me: RUN, RUN, RUN and hide... (Oh-oh...) But my heart tells me: BURN, BURN, BURN inside... (Yeah...) We fight a war that we can never win Where does the love end, where does it begin? Yeah, I lose my mind when you look at me I give you my soul, just to set you free... (Mmm-mmm) [Verse 2] [Quiet, Intimate Delivery] I shut down my phone, I lock all my doors But I’m still addicted to the way that you hurt (You hurt, yeah) The hardest part is when the morning comes around I wanna rewind to the love that we found Back to the person who broke me to the floor Stole all my light, but I still want some more... (More) It’s not about pride, it's not about my name It’s just a broken heart playing a stupid game Bags are all packed, yeah, I’m ready to leave But my feet won’t move, and it's hard to breathe [Chorus] [Very Sad, Slow and Emotional] My mind tells me: RUN, RUN, RUN and hide... (Oh-oh...) But my heart tells me: BURN, BURN, BURN inside... (Yeah...) We fight a war that we can never win Where does the love end, where does it begin? Yeah, I lose my mind when you look at me I give you my soul, just to set you free... (Mmm-mmm) [Bridge] [Vocal Crying Out, Sad Strings Building Up] No mercy tonight, no backing down... (No...) We are the kings of this broken town... You wanna break me, I wanna survive But when we’re fighting, why do I feel alive? (Oh-oh...) Why do I feel alive? [Chorus] [Climax, Powerful Emotional Cry, Heavy 808 Bass] My mind tells me: RUN, RUN, RUN and hide... (Oh-oh...) But my heart tells me: BURN, BURN, BURN inside... (Yeah...) We fight a war that we can never win Where does the love end, where does it begin? Yeah, I lose my mind when you look at me I give you my soul, just to set you free... [Outro] [Piano solo fading out, breathing sounds] Yeah... I wanna run... But you pull me back down. Is it just an instinct? Or is it love? (Mmm-mmm...) [Fade to silence] [End]
