It's easy to fall in love
But it's so hard to break somebody's heart
What seemed like a good idea
Has turned into a battlefield

Once lust has turned to dust
And all that's left has held breath
Forgotten who we first met
What seemed like a good idea's
Turned into a battlefield

We both know it's coming
Does illusion count for something we had?
The surface tension's gotta break
One drop is all it takes to flood out this lie

You and I, we have to let each other go
We keep holding on, but we both know
What seemed like a good idea's
Turned into a battlefield

Peace will come when one of us puts down the gun
Be strong for both of us
No, please, don't run, don't run
Eye to eye we face our fears
Unarmed on battlefield

We seemed like a good idea
We seemed like a good idea

No blood will spill if we both get out now
Still it's hard to put the fire out
What seemed like a good idea's
Turned into a battlefield

Feelings are shifting like the tide
And I think too much about the future
What seemed like a good idea's
Turned into a battlefield

We both know it's coming
Does illusion count for something we had?
The surface tension's gotta break
One drop is all it takes to flood out this lie

You and I, we have to let each other go
We keep holding on, but we both know
What seemed like a good idea's
Turned into a battlefield

Peace will come when one of us puts down the gun
Be strong for both of us
No, please, don't run, don't run
Eye to eye we face our fears
Unarmed on battlefield

We seemed like a good idea
We seemed like a good idea
We seemed like a good idea
We seemed like a good idea
