Go To War

The overall theme of the song revolves around the emotional wars we fight with those we love. It captures the frustration and pain that can arise in relationships, especially when communication breaks down.

It’s a raw look at how conflicts can overshadow the bond we share.

Verse 1

I don't know what you had in mind
But here we stand on opposing sides
