"double edged sword" lyrics

You're standing fully armored on the front line
And I won't fall for the tactics that you weaponize

But when you tell me you love me
I feel the words numbing the gashes from your stabs
And when I feel your regret
Oh, I almost forget the blood dripping down my back

You are a double-edged sword
You're the poison, the cure
You're the enemy, and the ally in this war
I keep wanting more 'cause
I'm not even sure that I know who I am without you anymore

(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

Did I sharpen the side of you that cuts me down?
Is it my fault that we're on this battleground?

'Cause when you tell me you care
I feel the words repair the bridges you burned down
And when I feel your regret
Oh, I almost forget that you left me to bleed out

You are a double-edged sword
You're the poison, the cure
You're the enemy, and the ally in this war
I keep wanting more 'cause
I'm not even sure that I know who I am without you anymore

(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

I watched the place I called home turn into a war zone
The one who's rescuing me wouldn't laugh as I bleed
'Cause I know the truth, and I know it's not you
But once the smoke clears from my view
Oh, you come back around
And lay your weapons down
And demonize all of my doubt

You are a double-edged sword
You're the poison, the cure
You're the enemy, and the ally in this war
I've been here before, now
I'm not even sure that I know who you are anymore
You are a double-edged sword
You're the poison, the cure
You're the enemy and the ally in this war
I keep wanting more 'cause
I'm not even sure that I know who I am without you anymore
