War Lyrics
- Lyrics
- Meaning
[Verse 1]
Hold on you're letting go, I don't wanna lose you, baby
Feels like you're getting cold, I can't seem to reach you lately
But you turn your blank with every shot you take
And this love that you wanted, you'd put your pride away
Too late, we're bleeding out
I can barely hear your heartbeat
Breaking, we're going down
If I hold you close then maybe
So I try to stay, just for old times' sake
But you waited and waited, so I can feel the pain
[Chorus]
Since you wanna go to war
Let's see who hurts the other more
You always got something you wanna prove
And I've got nothing left to lose
Don't know what we're fighting for
I'm tired of going back and forth
You always got something you want to prove
And I got nothing left to lose
[Verse 2]
New walls, strong lines, look at what we've come to lately
Broke glass, spilled wine, caught up in the crossfire baby
Nothing left to say, you can have your way
Babe, is this that you wanted? Then I would've stayed away
Too much, not enough, just to earn a broken heart, and
We ran out of love tryna finish what we started
But you always say just for old times' sake
Just to see if we make it, it never felt the same
[Chorus]
Since you wanna go to war
Let's see who hurts the other more
You always got something you wanna prove
And I've got nothing left to lose
Don't know what we're fighting for
I'm tired of going back and forth
You always got something you want to prove
And I got nothing left to lose
[Verse 1]
In the first verse, keshi describes the emotional distance growing between him and his partner. He’s desperate to hold on, feeling that the relationship is slipping away as his partner becomes cold and unresponsive. The metaphor of “bleeding out” represents the relationship dying, with keshi unable to hear the emotional heartbeat of his partner. Despite his efforts to stay for the sake of memories, he’s met with pain and disappointment.
[Chorus]
The chorus portrays the relationship as a battle, where both sides are trying to hurt each other more. keshi emphasizes how his partner always has something to prove, creating constant conflict, while he feels drained and has nothing left to lose. The repetition of war imagery conveys the idea that the relationship has become a back-and-forth struggle, devoid of love and meaning.
[Verse 2]
In the second verse, keshi paints a picture of the destruction caused by the ongoing conflict. He mentions new walls and broken glass, symbolizing the emotional barriers and damage that have accumulated. The spilled wine and crossfire imagery highlight the chaos and hurt they’ve inflicted on each other. There’s no more love left to save, and keshi reflects that they’ve exhausted themselves trying to fix something that was already broken. The attempt to hold onto old memories only brings more pain, as things never feel the same.
[Chorus]
The repeated chorus reinforces the central theme of the song: the exhausting and futile nature of their relationship. Both parties are trapped in a cycle of trying to hurt and prove something to each other, with no resolution in sight. keshi expresses his fatigue from the constant fighting and lack of purpose in their conflict, as he has nothing left to lose.
