Brent Giddens - Collateral Damage Lyrics

In the wake of a storm, that's when she appeared
A beacon of hope, a love to be revered.
But shadows were looming, whispers of a hard past
A heart in repair, a love not meant to last

Her heart was a battlefield, Her scars were unseen
Caught in the crossfire, of what could have been
I walked through the fire, embraced all her pain
But in the end, my love was in vain

Collateral damage, caught up in the fray
A casualty of love, I was led astray
In the midst of her storm, is where I found my shame
Collateral damage, left screaming her name

She said the timing, for us was not right
But in the wreckage, I lost all my sight
Of all the warning signs, the cracks that laid beneath
In her brokenness, I found my grief

Collateral damage, caught up in the fray
A casualty of love, I was led astray
In the midst of her storm, is where I found my shame
Collateral damage, left screaming her name
Collateral damage, left screaming her name
