We allow our pride to get in the way
Not wanting to be the first to break
Giving the other leverage to take advantage
To afraid to surrender for fear the other will walk away
We build up our walls guarding our heart for dear life
When we speak we shoot verbal bullets
Wounding one another trying to retaliate the irrational behaviors
Trying to cope with the fact that we are not together
We turn to meaningless endeavors
Attempting to convince ourselves we are happy
Ignoring the voice in our head telling us to quit the games and make our family work
We're to hurt no matter how much time has passed
our transgressions have not been properly addressed
We constantly fuss and fight because we cant get it right
No matter how many times we go back and fourth
We're tired of the short stints where everything is all good and we smile in each other's faces
When we're hurting inside
Don't want to bring up the past so we pretend nothing happened
Covering our problems up like they will eventually go away
It’s the first thing regurgitated in a argument
A dose of reality we weren't ready for
Daggers to the heart that puncture straight thorough
Reliving the life we felt was all so perfect
Hurts like hell and I cant tell if we will get back together
We open old wounds every time we talk
I can’t have a regular conversation because I'm thinking of the way things use to be
They weren’t perfect but at least we were both there trying to make it work
What hurts the most is I can’t cut you off
Get you out of my life like all the other guys who didn't work out
We are tied together for life
I hope we can get it right some time soon
