I fought for love and gave it all
Tiny pieces of my soul withdraw
My body trembles
My mind remembers
Promises spoken
Each one broken
Among failed campaigns
Where no love remains
Wounded and marred
Battered and scarred
Fragments
Segments
Battlegrounds
Pain abound
From fighting the other
And hurting a lover
Admitting defeat
Destruction complete
Vigilant defender
Total surrender
Time to heal
Time to feel
Begin
Again
And then
With all my might
I’ll stand and fight
Protect from start
My war-torn heart
Ignore my pride
Choose a side
Enlist                    
And with
Blood pulsing inside of me
Offer then what’s left of me
