"Love Is War" lyrics

What is love, my love
Tell me why it burns
There's a fire inside me
Longs to be yearn
I choose the path of peace
Refuse to live in vain
I won't let the hate consume me
Surrender my shield
Let down my pride

Despite your rage
You can send your troops
I have the high ground
I choose love not war
If you know your worth
You need no one to say
That your value is woven
In every step you take
We chase the mundane
The fleeting and small things
When the heart longs
A love beyond name
We fight to be seen
We fight to be heard
Both leave us wounded
Buried by each word

Make love
Not war
Standing side by side
Let go of our pride
Make love
Not war
Standing side by side
Let go of our pride
Make love
Not war
Standing side by side
Let go of our pride
Make love
Not war
Standing side by side
Let go of our pride
Standing side by side
Let go of our pride
Make love
Not war

You travel the path
Traveled in the past
Which caused the kings
And empires to crash
You enjoy the ache
So archaic with shame
Haunted all the land
Tragic is your little kingdom

The trenches of distrust
Run deep within us
Love was never meant to leave
A scar that doesn't heal
No need for covers
No need to pretend
There is no need for camo
[?] in here we are blend

Despite your rage
You can send your troops
I have the high ground
I choose love not war
If you know your worth
You need no one to say
That your value is woven
In every step you take
We chase the mundane
The fleeting and small things
When the heart longs
A love beyond name
We fight to be seen
We fight to be heard
Both leave us wounded
Buried by each word

Make love
Not war
Standing side by side
Let go of our pride
Make love
Not war
Standing side by side
Let go of our pride
Make love
Not war
Standing side by side
Let go of our pride
Make love
Not war
Standing side by side
Let go of our pride

Make love
