Love & War

lyrics

You're always on my back . I'm always at your throat . I can't take it anymore . You know I love you dear . But now it seems so clear . This isn't what we're working for . And push has come to shove . And our once kindled love . Has been dragged right through the mud . And every night I hear you crying . I lie awake at night . Because I know that things ain't right . And I think of all the times we had . Before we used to fight . But this ain't working . Give it up, give it up . So what are we trying for? . These last few years confirm my fears . That it ain't gonna work no more . I agree with you . I know every word is true . And although this hurts me deep inside . It's something I must do . Said I have seen this coming for sometime . I'm not going to argue with you tonight . I don't know what we're fighting for . I am pulling out, retreating from this war . I have been waiting . Waiting for the day, waiting for the word . When you come explaining . Telling me that "Hey, this ain't gonna work" . She said "I love you baby, more than anything . I want a person who makes me a priority . I'm sick of living with someone that I never see . This band, your job- they all will be the death of me . And this ain't gonna work no more" . It's love and war.
