Broken Little War

[Verse 1] You were shaking in the bathroom stall Mascara rivers on a cracked white wall Said "Love is just a bad relapse" And kissed my mouth Then turned your back You laughed at all my sober plans Crushed the bottle from my hands Called me weak for wanting out Then used my chest to drown your doubt [Chorus] You were the only peace I had In a house built out of rehab ads Cut me open just to feel the warm My broken little war You were the quiet in my head With a gun pressed to your own instead I kept bleeding just to feel your storm My broken little war [Verse 2] You sold your body just to stay awake Traced your veins like fault lines set to break Said "Die with me or walk away" But I was too sick to disobey You carved my name into your thigh Then laughed Said "Don’t believe this lie" You'd hold me closer when you shook Then spit my name like something you took [Chorus] You were the only peace I had In a house built out of rehab ads Cut me open just to feel the warm My broken little war You were the quiet in my head With a gun pressed to your own instead I kept bleeding just to feel your storm My broken little war [Bridge] You said "I hate you Stay" Pushed my kindness away But your fingers still found mine Every time you chose the line I’m sober in our empty bed You’re a number in a file instead Still hear you curse the way I cared Still sleep like you’re still there [Chorus] You were the only peace I had In a house built out of rehab ads Cut me open just to feel the warm My broken little war You were the quiet in my head With a gun pressed to your own instead I kept bleeding just to feel your storm My broken little war
