Bodies On The Floor Lyrics by John Legend
(Feat. Clipse)
Heard the sound of the sirens
Penetrating the silence
Are we doing this again?
Tell me this is not how it ends
Broken glass on the counter
Not another encounter
We go ’round for ’round, pound for pound
Over and over and over
After all we’ve lost
And all it cost
Some things we just
Can’t afford to save
I can’t keep repeatin’
So I’m retreatin’
I can’t find a reason
For me to stay
All this blood on the table
And bodies on the floor
It’s a war, it’s a war
That I don’t wanna fight no more
Only heaven can save us
Stretch my hands to the Lord, yeah
The choice is yours, it’s a war
That we don’t have to fight no more
We can split the homes down the middle
Send them cars back to the dealers
The jewelry and the chinchillas
You can take ’em wit’ ya
I’m done chasin’ rainbows like Skittles
Every other text is a riddle
You can’t be wrong and belittle
Tami and Tamesha are no friends
They ridin’ in yo’ Benz
You listenin’ to women with no men
That don’t make no sense
You tryin’ to find me guilty wit’ no prints
What’s a BFF to all these VVSes?
All your little girlfriends startin’ little messes
The only thing missin’ are their wedding dresses
While they was countin’ exes, you was countin’ blessings
You be sittin’ pretty, they happy with 50/50
Imagine goin’ half on a loft outside the city
Sometimes silence is way worse than violence
Feel like we on two different islands
When there’s blood on the table
And bodies on the floor
It’s a war, it’s a war
That I don’t wanna fight no more, yeah
Only heaven can save us
Stretch my hands to the Lord
Aye, the choice is yours, it’s a war
That we don’t have to fight no more
They say all is fair in love and war
But what am I still jealous for?
I let you leave, but can’t let you go
Is there someone else?
I don’t wanna know
Can’t see those hands on your body
It’s either me or nobody
But is the good worth the bad?
Do I miss what we had
So much that I need it right back?
After all this time
Can’t get you off my mind
Maybe I drank too much and I
Just need you tonight
Late night call
Do you miss me at all?
We’ll get back together
No regret until the morning light
When there’s blood on the table
And bodies on the floor
It’s a war, it’s a war
That I don’t wanna fight no more, yeah
Only heaven can save us
Stretch my hands to the Lord
Aye, the choice is yours, it’s a war
That we don’t have to fight no more
Said we don’t have to fight no more
Oh, we don’t have to fight no more
It’s a war, it’s a war
That we don’t have to fight no more
