Nanci Griffith - Battlefield lyrics
Your rating:
I live on a battlefield Surrounded by the ruins of a love we built And then destroyed between us The smoke has cleared As I stumble through the rubble I'm dazed and seeing double And I'm truly mystified My new home is a shell hole Filled with tears and muddy water And the bits of broken heart All around, there is a desolation And scenes of a devastation Of a love being torn apart I live on a battlefield I live on a battlefield I live on a battlefield The one where not one single drop of blood has spilled Is no less horrifying, sweet memories Of a bygone situation Now shattered, Lord, and battered Lies scattered all around My new home is a shell hole Filled with tears and muddy water Yes, and the bits of broken heart All around, there is a desolation And scenes of a devastation Of a love being torn apart I live on a battlefield I live on a battlefield I live on a battlefield And everything that can and has gone wrong (I live on a battlefield) It's gonna take spine to carry on (I live on a battlefield) Like a drowning man coming up for air (I live on a battlefield) I'm looking for another survivor but I can't see one anywhere My new home (my home is filled with muddy water) All around (all around, there's bits of broken heart) My world (my world) Is one of a desolation And scenes of a devastation There is no consolation, for a love been torn apart I live on a battlefield I live on a battlefield, battlefield I live on a battlefield (my home is filled with muddy water) I live on a battlefield, battlefield I live on a battlefield (all around, there's bits of broken heart) I live on a battlefield, battlefield (my home is filled with muddy water) I live on a battlefield, battlefield
