Battlefield Lyrics

Don't try to explain your mind I know what's happening here One minute it's love and suddenly It's like a battle-field One word turns into a Why is it the smallest things that tear us down My world's nothing when you don't I'm not here without a shield Can't go back now Both hands tied behind my back with nothing Oh no These times when we climb so fast to fall again Why we gotta fall for it now I never meant to start a war You know I never wanna hurt you Don't even know what we're fighting for Why does love always feel like ... a battlefield (battlefield) a battlefield (battlefield) a battlefield (battlefield) [repeat] Why does love always feel like Can't swallow our pride, Neither of us wanna raise that flag If we can't surrender then we both gonna lose what we had, oh no Both hands tied behind my back with nothing (nothing) Oh no, these times when we climb so fast to fall again I don't wanna fall for it now I never meant to start a war You know I never wanna hurt you Don't even know what we're fighting for Why does love always feel like ... a battlefield (battlefield) battlefield (battlefield) battlefield (battlefield) [repeat] Why does love always feel like You better go and get your armor (get your armor) Get your armor (get your armor) I guess you better go and get your armor (get your armor) Get your armor (get your armor) I guess you better go and get your We could pretend that we are friends tonight And in the morning we'll wake up and we'll be alright Cause baby we don't have to fight And I don't want this love to feel like A battlefield (oh) a battlefield (oh) a battlefield, Why does love always feel like a battlefield (oh) a battlefield (oh) a battlefield I guess you better go and get your armor I never meant to start a war (start a war) You know I never wanna hurt you Don't even know what we're fighting for (fighting, fighting for) Why does love always feel like ... a battlefield (battlefield) a battlefield (battlefield) a battlefield (battlefield) [repeat] Why does love always feel like You better go and get your armor (get your armor) Get your armor (get your armor) I guess you better go and get your armor (get your armor) Get your armor (get your armor) I guess you better go and get your Why does love always feel like (whooaa ooow) Why does love always feel like (whooaa ooow) A battlefield, a battlefield.. I never meant to start a war Don't even know what we're fighting for I never meant to start a war Don't even know what we're fighting for [fade out]

Meaning of Battlefield

“Battlefield” captures the agonizing feeling of a love turning into a destructive conflict, highlighting how easily connection can crumble. Jordin Sparks’ voice embodies vulnerability and frustration as she explores why seemingly small actions escalate into full-blown battles within a relationship. The repeated refrain – “a battlefield” – underscores this constant struggle, emphasizing how quickly joy transforms into pain and the difficulty in understanding the root of the discord. She pleads for restraint, warning against starting wars and expressing a desire not to cause harm, yet admits a lack of clarity about their shared conflict. The song suggests a need for protection (“I’m not here without a shield”) and a cautious approach, urging both parties to prepare themselves – “get your armor” – before confronting the emotional turmoil. Ultimately, it's a lament about the unpredictable nature of love and the painful realization that what once felt like paradise can quickly become a devastating warzone.
