"Before We Were Enemies" lyrics

Well I'm half way down
I'm barely breathing
And my armors gone
Is there a reason
All my shields go down
Everytime you come around
And I can taste the dirt
Someone call a medic
'Cause the shit still burns
Fill my heart with anesthetic
And my vision blurred
Everytime you come around

Remember when we made a pact
Now were at war it's all we have
The battle now alive
All the years I kept inside

Shoulda know it from the start
Before we were enemies
Coulda hid away my heart
Woulda stopped another tragedy
Yeah you hit me on the mark
Before we were enemies
Coulda hid away my heart
Woulda stopped another tragedy

Yeah I watched you change
Turn the gun on me but I remained the same
Was it loyalty that put me in my grave
Hands tied behind my back
And I been throwing white flags
Why don't we give peace a chance?
You and I were on a path
Then you stabbed me in the back
And I ain't going cut like that

Remember when we made a pact
Now were at war it's all we have
The battle now alive
All the years I kept inside

Shoulda know it from the start
Before we were enemies
Coulda hid away my heart
Woulda stopped another tragedy
Yeah you hit me on the mark
Before we were enemies
Coulda hid away my heart
Woulda stopped another tragedy

They say someone against you really can't hurt you
But if they were someone you cared for the damage hits different
Your armor non-existent
Trusted so I wasn't resistant
I gave you light to shine with me
But over time you wanted to dim mine
You took it all from me
Even when you and I were family
Before you became the enemy
I don't wanna fight with you
But you gave me the gloves
No more love
These are the tears the dove cried
Emotions in the open
Too woke too hide
All these years I kept inside
The damage is done

Shoulda know it from the start
Before we were enemies
Coulda hid away my heart
Woulda stopped another tragedy
Yeah you hit me on the mark
Before we were enemies
Coulda hid away my heart
Woulda stopped another tragedy
