“Weaponry” Lyrics
(Verse 1: Jessie J)
Must you do this
Treat me ruthless
Make excuses when the truth is that the thought still comes
Now and then when you’re in private
You’ll consider then the silence tends to sound like drums
You’re pretending you don’t care
So, I’m doing the same
I like you more when you’re taken
Oh Lord, you’re good at this game
(Chorus: Jessie J & Mike Posner)
Don’t do me dirty
Show me some mercy
Darlin’, please lay down your weaponry
How did I end up somewhere between a lover and a memory?
‘Cause I don’t believe in a halfway heart
And you gave me all of my favorite scars
How did I end up somewhere between a lover and a memory?
(Verse 2: Mike Posner)
I been drinking I been smoking
I been waiting I been hoping that there’s still some chance
You and me can find a reason to believe in all them weekends that we used to have
You’re pretending you don’t care
So, I’m doing the same
I like you more when you’re taken
Oh Lord, you’re good at this game
(Chorus: Jessie J & Mike Posner)
Don’t do me dirty
Show me some mercy
Darlin’, please lay down your weaponry (please lay down your weaponry)
How did I end up somewhere between a lover and a memory?
‘Cause I don’t believe in a halfway heart (a halfway heart)
And you gave me all of my favorite scars
How did I (How did I) end up somewhere between a (oh) lover and a memory?
Don’t do me dirty
Show me some mercy
Darlin’, please lay down your weaponry
How did I end up somewhere between a lover and a memory?
‘Cause I don’t believe in a halfway heart (I don’t believe) (A halfway heart)
And you gave me all of my favorite scars (You gave me all of my favorite scars )
How did I end up (how did I end up) somewhere between a (somewhere between a) lover and memory?
