Bloodsport Lyrics
(Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah)
Nothing is perfect but your imperfections are quaint
And your love is worth it and for that I will wait
And though you hate me when you have a turn
I drive you crazy but you always return
If I fall short, if I break rank
It's a bloodsport, but I understand
I am all yours, I am unmanned
I'm on all fours, willingly damned
Loving you's a bloodsport (Yeah yeah, yeah yeah)
Fighting in a love war yeah (Yeah yeah, yeah yeah)
It's not what I'm in love for, I'm yours,
But I don't know if you can help it, maybe I'm just being selfish,
Loving you's a bloodsport (Yeah yeah, yeah yeah)
Although you love me, sometimes we're mean
Things can get ugly, but we're still a team
We are an army, that breaks from within but
That's why we're stronger, and that's how we'll win
If I fall short, if I break rank
It's a bloodsport, but I understand
I am all yours, I am unmanned
I'm on all fours, willingly damned
Loving you's a bloodsport (Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, Yeah)
Fighting in a love war (Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, Yeah)
It's not what I'm in love for, I'm yours,
But I don't know if you can help it, maybe I'm just being selfish,
Loving you's a bloodsport (Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, Yeah)
I've got your back, and though it's stacked against us
I've got your hand, it's us against consensus,
and I will burn the people who hurt you the worst and I will not learn
Cause I am too young and too dumb to consider the terms
Of breaking the law and I'll curse the day that they return
With a smile on my face as their heads hit the floor
And they're done now it's curtains the bloodlust's a clusterfuck it hurts but it's working
And even if you ask me to stop it's too late because I've already decided their fate
It's not a distaste it's pure hate and it pulsates and it works its way around my brain
Anyway what I'm trying to say is I'll protect you til the day I meet my maker
So don't fight me now cause you might need me later
Loving you's a bloodsport (Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah)
Fighting in a love war (Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah)
It's not what I'm in love for, I'm yours,
But I don't know if you can help it, maybe I'm just being selfish,
Loving you's a bloodsport (Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah)
And your love is worth it and for that I will wait
And though you hate me when you have a turn
I drive you crazy but you always return
It's a bloodsport, but I understand
I am all yours, I am unmanned
I'm on all fours, willingly damned
Fighting in a love war yeah (Yeah yeah, yeah yeah)
It's not what I'm in love for, I'm yours,
But I don't know if you can help it, maybe I'm just being selfish,
Loving you's a bloodsport (Yeah yeah, yeah yeah)
Things can get ugly, but we're still a team
We are an army, that breaks from within but
That's why we're stronger, and that's how we'll win
It's a bloodsport, but I understand
I am all yours, I am unmanned
I'm on all fours, willingly damned
Fighting in a love war (Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, Yeah)
It's not what I'm in love for, I'm yours,
But I don't know if you can help it, maybe I'm just being selfish,
Loving you's a bloodsport (Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, Yeah)
I've got your hand, it's us against consensus,
and I will burn the people who hurt you the worst and I will not learn
Cause I am too young and too dumb to consider the terms
Of breaking the law and I'll curse the day that they return
With a smile on my face as their heads hit the floor
And they're done now it's curtains the bloodlust's a clusterfuck it hurts but it's working
And even if you ask me to stop it's too late because I've already decided their fate

But I don't know if you can help it, maybe I'm just being selfish,
Loving you's a bloodsport (Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah)

Am I the only one that hears it this way?
We are an army THAT BREAKS FROM WITHIN // But that's why we're stronger, and that's how we'll win
@kateejo17 I agree, though it confuses me why that would make the relationship stringer?

I think the song is about a relationship between a guy and his more troubled girlfriend. It's about loving someone despite his/her flaws and shortcomings and perhaps also despite trauma coming in between the relationship. In the song, the guy states that loving the person is a "bloodsports" in it that it's hard because sometimes the demons meaning the "back" of the person is stacked against the working out and blossoming. Though the guy willingly admits he's not in it for the fight but because he loves her, he also understands that loving her includes getting by with the ups and downs of her moods and demons - the people who "hurt" her are not mentioned but the interpretations are numerous here.
