LYRICS
Remember when I dove into the crowd
And I got a bloody knee under my skin
A mark from wiping out
It brings back the memories
Every bones been broken
But my heart is still wide open
I can’t stop dont care if I lose
Baby you are the weapon I choose
These wounds are self-inflicted
I’m going down in flames for you
Baby you are the weapon I choose
These wounds are self-inflicted
One more thing I’m addicted to
With each scar
Theres a map that tells a story
What a souvenir of young loves like
Jumping out an airplane
Riding a tidal wave of an ocean of emotion
My heart rips me wide open
I can’t stop dont care if I lose
Baby you are the weapon I choose
These wounds are self-inflicted
I’m going down in flames for you
Baby you are the weapon I choose
These wounds are self-inflicted
One more thing I’m addicted to
And I cover up these scars
(We’ll make it, we’ll make it, but we break it)
And I can’t stop seeing stars
(Let’s hope, not die)
Whenever you’re around, around
I can’t stop dont care if I lose
Baby you are the weapon I choose
These wounds are self-inflicted
I’m going down in flames for you,
Oh, you are the weapon I choose
These wounds are self-inflicted
One more thing I’m addicted to
(I won’t, I won’t, I won’t)
No, I can’t stop
(I won’t, I won’t, I won’t)
Oh, I can’t stop, no, I can’t stop
(I won’t, I won’t, I won’t)
And I’m going out in flames
(I won’t, I won’t, I won’t)
Oh, I’m going down in flames
I-I-I-I-E-I-I
Baby you are the weapon I choose
(I won’t, I won’t, I won’t)
Baby you are the weapon I choose
I-I-I-I-E-I-I
