Slash - Battleground Lyrics






One more shot across the bow
One more bullet through the heart
You've got me bleeding on the ground
I've got you wounded in the dark

Why do we always
Take this way too far?

Surrender tonight
There's time save tomorrow
Mama, don't you let me down

This broken alliance
Leaves me so hollow
And wondering how
Did the bed that we made
Become our battleground?

Well the damage has been done
I know you hurt so don't pretend
Where we're used to making love
Now we're making war instead

Before it's too late
Lay your arms down let me in

Surrender tonight
This time save tomorrow
Mama, don't you let me down

This broken alliance
Leaves me so hollow
And wondering how
Did the bed that we made
Become our battleground?

Just hold your fire
Long enough to see
This ain't how it's supposed to be

Once all that we've got is lost
The walls will fall
Please don't let them fall on me

I wanna lay you down
Surrender all the sorrow
The sorrow

Wanna lay you down
Surrender till it's gone

I wanna lay you down surrender
Till tomorrow
Tomorrow

Wanna lay you down surrender till it's gone

(Lalalas)
Just surrender till it's gone
Just surrender till it's gone
[Vocalizing]

(Lalalas)
I don't wanna fight no more
Say [vocalizing]
I can feel it all there
I wanna tell right just then and there oh
Say yeah
Say yeah

I don't wanna fight this battle anymore

    Buenas noches a todos =)

  69. l.... f....

    La mejor canción del disco *www* <3

  70. N.... L....

    Considering how long Myles has been doing music it's always a treat to hear a "love song" from him because they are so rare. His vocals are so powerful and raw.

  71. M.... ....

    check out my cover http://y2u.be/lqpL_A-tdaM

  72. M.... ....

    sdsdfsdfsdfsadad

  73. �.... �....

    Боже!...Как же красиво !

  74. J.... S....

    Damn, there is a river in my pants ... fuck yeah man, fucking great voice, i love it, and i love him, but please, and i sorrow you, stop comparing Myles and Axl, is just stupid.

  75. J.... K....

    facking awesome fack sacks! on repeat repeat..

  76. A.... ....

    The bass sounds fantastic in this.

  77. T.... W....

    Sing it for me Slash!!!!

  78. D.... Z....

    first time i hear myles with those high notes

    D.... Z....

    @greekfreak1980 Myles is great and very down to earth he was even hesitant to help out with the GnR hall of fame induction but eventually gave in and done it because he didn't want the fans to miss out on seeing the rest of the line up playing together again. 

    D.... Z....

    @DeaaEldeen Zahalka Listen to Blackbird, Breathe Again, and Words Darker than their Wings. Some of my favorites!

    D.... Z....

    Breathe again is amazing vocally as are your other choices

    D.... Z....

    Myles' range is just phenomenal. He has a great mixed voice.

    D.... Z....

    @DeaaEldeen Zahalka There's a ton of songs from alter bridge and mayfield four that got really high notes, check out the ''myles kennedy high notes'' videos on youtube

  79. J.... f....

    I thought apocalyptic love was unbeatable... then I heard this. 

  80. T.... ....

    Sounds like 'Heaven' by the Rolling Stones from the 'Tattoo you' album at the start.

  81. P.... V....

    One more shout across the bound
    One more Bullet through the heart
    You got me bleeding on the ground
    I got you wounded in the dark

    Why do we always
    Take this way to far?

    Surrender tonight this time
    Save Tomorrow
    Mamma don't you let me down

    This broken alliance leaves me
    So hollow
    And wondering how
    Did the bed that we made
    Become our Battleground

    Well the damage has been done
    I know you hurt, so don't pretend
    Well we're use to making love
    Now we're making war instead

    Before it's too late
    Lay your arms, now let me in

    Surrender tonight this time
    Save Tomorrow
    Mamma don't you let me down
    This broken alliance leaves me
    So hollow
    And wondering how
    Did the bed that we made
    Become our battleground?

    Just hold your fire long enough to see
    We see how exposed to be
    Was all that we lost, the wars we fought
    Please don't let them fall on me

    I wanna lay you down
    Surrender all the sorrow
    The sorrow
    I wanna lay you down
    Surrender 'till it's gone
    I wanna lay you down
    Surrender 'till tomorrow, tomorrow
    Wanna lay you down
    Surrender 'till it's gone

    (la la la la la la)

    Just surrender 'till it's gone
    Just surrender 'till it's gone

    (la la la la la la)

    I don't want to fight no more
    I don't want to fight this battle anymore

    P.... V....

    I think its bough.

  82. S.... K....

    Kind of a rock twist to a true beatle melody. MeLikey!

  83. k.... ....

    Myles's voice, the lyrics and the solo...just perfect

  84. m.... b....

    oh my god this song is amazing

  85. S.... ....

    The notes Myles hits in this song is just amazing

    S.... ....

    @Myles Pierpont puts axl to shame pal

    S.... ....

    @daniel lemon
    agreed

    S.... ....

    @greekfreak1980 No they would not. People think Plant is a god.

    S.... ....

    2020 🙌

  86. C.... P....

    i want mr todd kern on lead vocal 

  87. S.... ....

    this song has that emotional feeling to it... this is the best solo i have heard by slash since snakepit imo

    S.... ....

    on a recorded song maybe better then the live rocket queen ones

  88. S.... ....

    ive been waiting for this song since i heard the vocals on reel to real

    S.... ....

    You and I both.  I kept up with those and couldn't wait until this album came out.

    S.... ....

    That's absolutely true! Did you once listen to the harmonies that Myles does in the chorus?! FUCK YEAH! FUCK YEAH!!! Just like Elvis said in ReelToRealPart7. 
    Myles really killed it on the record, it really became a band-project and Myles definitely is the heart of it. Vocal melody is what makes a song. Most amazing musician!

  89. M.... ....

    what`s the problem with SLASH to make this kind of crap album...

    M.... ....

    @Worlds Lee Finest why would i talk bout alter b. we are here to disscuss about this fail(WOF).in my oppinion only 2 good songs of 17.c mon,what would happen then(87)if appetite had only welcome to the jungle and paradise city ?,back then every song was unique and that was probbably one of the greatest album of r`n`r,but now slash come every 2 years with album,if we can call it album afterall we all have a right to oppinion,and mine is that this album sucks.and no i don`t listen to rap,sorry for your wrong.but i am graetly dissonpointed after this `kind of backingtrack recorded project.`with no soul.

    M.... ....

    @ifyoureadthisyoudi druze mozda jedna ili 2 pesme,ali ovo ostalo,kao da je snimio za 2 sata u taku solaze i rifove,ma daj,pa jebes ti slashovu solazu kad na pocetku znas vec kako ce uci u nju i kako izaci,jedino bubanj vadi stvar,ali sve u kompletu kad se preslusa i slozi bledo,bas bledo

    M.... ....

    it seems that u care,i didn`t talk to u afterall,but u just feel like u r mentioned.

    M.... ....

    @Collin DeVries Slash said also,that time the whole band contributed to the songs,not just Myles & him and you can definetely hear that.I enjoy the hell out of the cd,just ignore the usual trolls.

    M.... ....

    @Ognjen Djordjevic I listened to every song on this new Slash cd, and not 1 song disappointed me, I actually like the songs, you calling this album a fail, we will see then when it comes out and the album will climb up the charts, then what will you say.

  90. f.... c....

    One more shout across the bound

    Surrender tonight this time

    Well the damage has been done
    I know you hurt, so dont pretend
    Well we're use to making love
    Now we are making war instead

    Before its too late
    Lay your arms , now let me in

    Surrender tonight this time

    Was all that we lost, The wars we fought
    Please dont let them fall on me

    I wanna lay you down
    surrender all the sorrow
    the sorrow
    i wanna lay you down
    surrender till its gone
    i wanna lay you down
    surrender till tomorrow, tomorrow
    wanna lay you down
    surrender till its gone

    la la la la la la......

    i dont want to fight no more
