Choose Your Battles by Katy Perry
Lyrics & Translation
English
You are my hurt locker lover
Keep me walking on a wire
Don't know when you'll blow
So I tiptoe through your triggered mind
You fight me but I'm on your side
Defeated, now retreating
Why you tryna make me your enemy?
All you really need is a little peace
I just wanna be your lover
Oh, this is not a competition
So, baby, why the ammunition?
I don't wanna be the last one standing
Choose your battles, babe
Then you'll win the war
Stop digging your own grave
When there's so much to live for
Choose your battles, babe
'Cause I'm not fighting anymore
I am not fighting anymore
I've tried to pick off your red flags
But dancing on broken glass
Your mind games hit like grenades
We're cursed just like the Kennedys
But you somehow get me on my knees,
Defeated, now retreating
Why you tryna make me your enemy?
All you really need is a little peace
I just wanna be your lover
Oh, this is not a competition
So, baby, why the ammunition?
I don't wanna be the last one standing
Choose your battles, babe
Then you'll win the war
Stop digging your own grave
When there's so much to live for
Choose your battles, babe
'Cause I'm not fighting anymore
I am not fighting anymore
If you wanna go, then go
If you wanna stay, then stay
'Cause I don't wanna fight no more, baby
I am not fighting anymore
If you wanna go, then go
If you wanna stay, then stay
I don't wanna fight no more anyway,
I am not fighting anymore
If you wanna go, then go
(choose your battles, babe)
If you wanna stay, then stay
(then you win the war)
'Cause I don't wanna fight no more, baby
(Stop digging your own grave
When there's so much to live for)
Choose your battles, babe
'Cause I'm not fighting anymore
I am not fighting anymore anyway, anyway,
I am not fighting anymore
If you wanna go, then go
If you wanna stay, then stay
'Cause I don't wanna fight no more, baby

Choose Your Battles (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Eres mi amante que guarda el dolor
Me mantienes caminando en la cuerda floja
No sé cuándo explotarás
Así que camino de puntillas por tu mente alterada
Me peleas pero estoy de tu lado
Derrotada, ahora en retirada
¿Por qué intentas hacerme tu enemiga?
Todo lo que realmente necesitas es un poco de paz
Solo quiero ser tu amante
Oh, esto no es una competición
Entonces, cariño, ¿por qué la munición?
No quiero ser la última en pie
Elige tus batallas, cariño
Entonces ganarás la guerra
Deja de cavar tu propia tumba
Cuando hay tanto por lo que vivir
Elige tus batallas, cariño
Porque ya no estoy peleando
Ya no estoy peleando
He intentado quitar tus banderas rojas
Pero bailando sobre cristales rotos
Tus juegos mentales golpean como granadas
Estamos malditos como los Kennedy
Pero de alguna manera me pones de rodillas,
Derrotada, ahora en retirada
¿Por qué intentas hacerme tu enemiga?
Todo lo que realmente necesitas es un poco de paz
Solo quiero ser tu amante
Oh, esto no es una competición
Entonces, cariño, ¿por qué la munición?
No quiero ser la última en pie
Elige tus batallas, cariño
Entonces ganarás la guerra
Deja de cavar tu propia tumba
Cuando hay tanto por lo que vivir
Elige tus batallas, cariño
Porque ya no estoy peleando
Ya no estoy peleando
Si quieres irte, entonces vete
Si quieres quedarte, entonces quédate
Porque ya no quiero pelear más, cariño
Ya no estoy peleando
Si quieres irte, entonces vete
Si quieres quedarte, entonces quédate
Ya no quiero pelear más de todos modos,
Ya no estoy peleando
Si quieres irte, entonces vete
(elige tus batallas, cariño)
Si quieres quedarte, entonces quédate
(entonces ganarás la guerra)
Porque ya no quiero pelear más, cariño
(Deja de cavar tu propia tumba
Cuando hay tanto por lo que vivir)
Elige tus batallas, cariño
Porque ya no estoy peleando
Ya no estoy peleando de todos modos, de todos modos,
Ya no estoy peleando
Si quieres irte, entonces vete
Si quieres quedarte, entonces quédate
Porque ya no quiero pelear más, cariño
