Lyrics & Translation

[English]

作曲 : Ed Sheeran/Elvira Anderfjärd

制作人 : Ed Sheeran

Tearing out our hair again, we're stuck inside a war game

We rinse and repeat what is eating me up inside

Cold of the words all day

And heat of the love all night

We trade nothing back but we keep giving out our time

Everyone in our lives

Instead of only you and I

Every day we feel deflated

Trying to roll with all the changes

Reality of what we've created

We're not fine

I can feel the pressure breaking

Everything that we've been building

It won't stop until it kills us

Don't lie

Tearing out our hair again, we're stuck inside a war game

Either in love or we're insane

I guess to want the pleasure, got to take it with the pain

Till we're done, done, we'll still play the war game

Tearing out our hair again, we're stuck inside a war game

Either in love or we're insane

Guess to want the pleasure, got to take it with the pain

Till we're done, done, we'll still play the war game

There's no one above or below, you are all I want

But I feel that it's not enough

To just offer you my love

Inches from moving out and moving on

This tension and what we've got?

But when will the fighting stop?

Every day we feel deflated

Trying to roll with all the changes

Reality of what we've created

We're not fine

I can feel the pressure breaking

Everything that we've been building

It won't stop until it kills us

Don't lie

Tearing out our hair again, we're stuck inside a war game

Either in love or we're insane

I guess to want the pleasure, got to take it with the pain

Till we're done, done, we'll still play the war game

Tearing out our hair again, we're stuck inside a war game

Either in love or we're insane

Guess to want the pleasure, got to take it with the pain

Till we're done, done, we'll still play the war game

You still hold my flame, yeah

Put me in my place, yeah

Caught in this war game, yeah

Till we die

Do we leave or stay? Yeah

Do we mend or break? Yeah

Caught in this war game, yeah

Till we die

Tearing out our hair again, we're stuck inside a war game

Either in love or we're insane

I guess to want the pleasure, got to take it with the pain

Till we're done, done, we'll still play the war game

Tearing out our hair again, we're stuck inside a war game

Either in love or we're insane

Guess to want the pleasure, got to take it with the pain

Till we're done, done, we'll still play the war game

Don't break on us

Don't fall to dust

Don't kill the love
