**Verse 1**
If love is warfare,
I'm its only soldier,
Giving all I've got
Until my heart turns colder.
Every breath's a subtle sign
That I am losing
Who I was before
And who I'm becoming.
**Pre-Chorus**
Every shout, another fight.
Every tear becomes a war.
Fading further from the light,
Wondering what I'm fighting for.
**Chorus**
I've been waving white flags
No one ever sees.
Begging for a ceasefire
While you're at peace.
Every scar's a medal
That I never asked to earn.
If love's a battlefield,
There's no home left to return.
**Verse 2**
Every promise shattered
Like broken glass beneath my feet.
The echoes of forever
Now sound like my defeat.
Your name still fills the silence,
Like smoke that never clears.
I've spent a thousand sleepless nights
Drowning in these years.
**Bridge**
Maybe wars don't end,
They just run out of survivors.
Maybe broken hearts
Only learn to live beside the fire.
I searched for victory,
But all I found was loss.
Some battles aren't worth winning
When they cost you who you are.
**Final Chorus**
I'm still waving white flags,
Still no one can see.
The only one still fighting
Is the man I used to be.
Every scar's a reminder
Of the love I couldn't save.
If love is warfare,
Then I've become my own grave.
**Outro**
If love is warfare,
Lay this soldier down.
I've carried this armor
Until it pulled me to the ground.
No heroes, no victories,
No songs left to sing.
Just the silence after battle...
And the ghost of everything.
