Battleships
Daughtry

Yeah


I’m sinking inside

And the mast and lines are broken down tonight.

I swallow my pride

But we’re drowning in the ocean and it’s tearing my heart open


Baby we’re high then we’re low, first it’s yes then it’s no, and we’re changing like the tides

Yeah, but I want you, I need you, and I guarantee you we’ll make it out alive


Cause I don’t wanna fight no more,

Even when the waves get rough

I don’t wanna see the day we say we’ve had enough


And I don’t wanna fight this war

Bullets coming off our lips

But we stick to our guns and we love like battleships.

Like battleships.


Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom, boom, boom

Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom

And the cannon goes

Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom, boom, boom

Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom

And the cannon goes


Bombs fly through the air

And I know that we’re both playing not so fair.

Ohh, show, show me you care

I got my white flag up and it’s waving cause you know this love’s worth saving baby.


We’re high then we’re low, first it’s yes then it’s no, and we’re changing like the tides

Yeah, but I want you, I need you, and I guarantee you we’ll make it out alive


Cause I don’t wanna fight no more,

Even when the waves get rough

I don’t wanna see the day we say we’ve had enough


And I don’t wanna fight this war


Bullets coming off our lips

But we stick to our guns and we love like battleships.

Like battleships.


Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom, boom, boom

Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom

And the cannon goes

Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom, boom, boom

Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom

And we love, yeah we love

And we love, yeah we love


I’m sinking inside

Can we finally put our weapons down tonight?


Cause I don’t wanna fight no more,

Even when the waves get rough

I don’t wanna see the day we say we’ve had enough


And I don’t wanna fight this war

Bullets coming off our lips

But we stick to our guns and we love like battleships.

Like battleships.


Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom, boom, boom

Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom

And the cannon goes

Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom, boom, boom

Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom

And the cannon goes

Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom, boom, boom

Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom

And the cannon goes

Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom, boom, boom

Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom

And we love like battleships.
