[Verse 1]
They called off the war last night
Half of the room had a lightning pouring down
No one's around
No one could speak or make a sound
Well, I'm so upset, she would cry
In a blister of pain, she'd peel off the shame and just die
'Cause I let her down
Ain't that usual now?
[Chorus]
'Cause we hurt the ones we love
Tryin' to be enough
And we don't succeed and we bleed
Through the white linen sheets
Like broken doves
All for the ones we love
Mm
[Verse 2]
There's a star in the back of your heart
She's hurtin' like hurtin' hurts when you hurt from a scar
She's all fucked up
Blue to the bone, the mending the dark
I can't make out if she's real
If she's a girl, the heart that I'd once steal
Half of me's blue
Half of me's here because of you
[Chorus]
'Cause we hurt the ones we love
Tryin' to be enough
We don't succeed and we bleed
Through the white linen sheets
Like broken doves
'Cause we hurt the ones we love
Tryin' to be enough
And we don't succeed and we bleed
Through the white linen sheets
Like broken doves
All for the ones we love
All for the ones we love
All for the ones we love
[Outro]
Well, I guess that it'll work out
Though, this northern sky seems so full of doubt
There, it's true
Love ain't a room you just walk into
