he loves you

He watched your body walk through the door
And thus began your baby's heartbreak war
You humored him through the heat of July
But when August came, you lost the spark in your eye

He traced your hips with a knife at the wall
A homebase to lean on in the battles of fall
He's clinging onto your small hands
This is fine, 'cause he's just a man

But he loves you, he loves you, he'd die for your love
He would lay down his guns if it meant you would come
But you don't love him or anyone, you'd pick up his guns
You'd take them and run if it meant you had won

'Cause being cold and spiteful seems like all a girl has
In a world that won't protect her from their stares and their hands
And maybe he'd have loved you with a good and pure heart
But that's not a chance you take with a man and his art

He took you to his mom and she seems like a catch
But the pain in her eyes said that she learned from the best
Commanders in chief can't always command a whole room
So they stick to one person, and that person is you

Flipped over tables
Holes in the walls
He hasn't done that to you yet
But when the time calls, it calls

But he loves you, he loves you, he'd die for your love
He would lay down his guns if it meant you would come
But you don't love him or anyone, you'd pick up his guns
You'd take them and run if it meant you had won

'Cause being cold and spiteful seems like all a girl has
In a world that won't protect her from their stares and their hands
And maybe he'd of loved you with a good and pure heart
But that's not a chance you take with a man and his art

When he pulls the trigger fast and it takes you by surprise
You can't say I never warned you of his dark twisted lies
In matters of life, death and all in between
You can't say I never warned you of his sinister schemes
He loves you, he loves you, he'd die for your love
