Lovers Turned Enemies MP3
Context: They meet on a mission and fall in love, time goes on and the feeling gets stronger. Something happens and they meet on the battlefield again this time on different sides. This is from their perspective! Will they take the shots? Will they obey orders?
Lyrics:
Found you in the crosshairs, standing there
Mask to mask in smoke and flame
Your finger on the trigger, pulling hard
But we both know you can't play this game
Lower your weapon, love, it's me
The ghost you used to know by name
Don't you dare look at me like that
Like we're still who we used to be
You're wearing death's mask literally
The reaper that you chose to be
I pulled the trigger just to prove I could
But we both know I'm compromised
The gun's not loaded and it never was
You can see it in my eyes
We're lovers turned to enemies
With guns we'll never use
Survived the fire together
Now we're destined to lose
You can't kill what owns your soul
I can't shoot what kept me whole
So we stand here in the ashes
Of a love that won't let go
I should raise my weapon, take the shot
That's what ghosts are trained to do
But my hands remember holding you
Through nights when hell broke through
I should call for backup, sound alarms
That's what soldiers have to do
But my mouth remembers screaming out
Your name when I needed you
You're the mission I'll fail
You're the target I'll miss
Every single time
Every single time
We're compromised, can't you see?
I still dream of you
I still wake up screaming
In the fire, in the field
You're the one thing that was real
Say goodbye
Say goodbye
But we can't, we never end
We're lovers turned to enemies
With guns we'll never use
Survived the fire together
Now we're destined to lose
You can't kill what owns your soul
( You own my soul)
I can't shoot what kept me whole
(You kept me whole)
So we stand here in the ashes
Of a love that won't let go
Won't let go
Can't let go
Next time, I'll load the gun
No you won't
Next time, you'll take the shot
No I won't
We're so compromised
