We were caught in the crossfire

My heart is reckless, fiery
And when I fall, I fall like crumb
I know I'm a fighter, I'm a time-bomb
And in a moment I might explode
I remember July when we were flying
And I wanted to let you know
But when we collided and we spiraled
We still couldn't let this go

We were caught in the crossfire
We were caught in the crossfire of my heart
And I had a loaded gun
And I was on the run
And I didn't know you were coming undone
And I didn't know when I'd fire that gun
That it would hurt someone
A battle nobody won

Just caught in the crossfire
Just caught in the crossfire
But what are we fighting for?
What are we fighting for?

Your heart is careful, cautious
And you wanted to guard it well
When you let the wall down and I crashed in
I thought I only hurt myself
I'll clean up the mess if you're down to let me
We can go real slow this time
I was so selfish, didn't protect you
Waging a war inside your mind

You were caught in the crossfire
You were caught in the crossfire of my heart
And I had a loaded gun
And I was on the run
And I didn't know you were coming undone
And I didn't know when I'd fire that gun
That it would hurt someone
A battle nobody won

You were caught in the crossfire
Caught in the crossfire
What are we fighting for
What are we fighting for
Just caught in the crossfire

I got all in, I can't help it
I'm sure you probably think of me as selfish
And I know that it's the truth but I won't tell it
I hate when my heart feels helpless to someone else's
And baby, you know I get aggressive, yeah I get possessive
I hold onto the control and I fight until it's messy
I'm throwing up a feeling, expecting you to catch it
And finally, I see it, I'm just scared of rejection
It was all about me from the jump, I admit it
Only cared about my needs and seeing if we fulfilled 'em
If I cared about you, girl, I woulda done it different
And looking at you now, I'm ashamed that I did it it

We were caught in the crossfire
We were caught in the crossfire of my heart
And I had a loaded gun
And I was on the run
And I didn't know you were coming undone
And I didn't know when I'd fire that gun
That it would hurt someone
A battle nobody won

Just caught in the crossfire
Just caught in the crossfire
But what are we fighting for?
What are we fighting for?
