Hold her close
Risk the suffocating choke
You’re the turtleneck sweater itching around her throat
Cause you were scared
She was deathly unprepared
For the weather and the places that the dirty men stare
Pretty women know better now
They know better somehow
Better than to help us hopeless out
Of our cries and pouts
We all love our battle wounds
Wash them out with whiskey and our scars burn like new
Why don’t you commandeer
Any ships that dare draw near
Is it the bulwark or the railing which facilitates your fear
And as collected kids
Is it no longer cool to kiss
The captain as he swears to go down with his ship
Pretty women know better now
They know better somehow
Better than to help us stubborn down
Off of our sturdy bows
We all love our battle wounds
Wash them out with whiskey and our scars burn like new
We all love our battle wounds
Wash them out with whiskey and our scars burn like new
If he stumbles cross my path
I’ll be throwing fists
Because I know you and I were only hit and miss
Now it all seems so dull
Just a game of wit
I question all the time whether I should give a shit
I analyze then calculate the pause
And curves in the corners of your mouth
Then realize that I made a fatal flaw
In carrying remainders instead of doubt
Fleeting me
Leaving apathetic peat
Is the green of the turf where I’ve dug my cleats
But this fuel and my fire
Wrapped in gentleman’s attire
Is enough to show I’m nowhere near ready to retire
We all love our battle wounds
Wash them out with whiskey and our scars burn like new
We all love our battle wounds
Wash them out with whiskey and our scars burn like new
