lyrics

Is it true we're through
Or is there anything else that I could do
To convince you to stay
Well maybe some truths are best left not to say
So we kiss with the lights on
Avoid conversation
Can't talk to you without you ruining my day
Why must our battle be a public display

Wild accusations
The games we play
They go nowhere

She came back from yesterday
To laugh at our disarray
We argue and fight
So why waste all night
Pretending that one of us might change
She'll come back to haunt me
Harbinger of misery
She's waiting in line
And biding her time
To sweep our remains in the bin of history
And if we let her, she might give
Enough rope to hang ourselves with
She'll kick back the chair
And then laugh as we swing

And so I concede
Say I wouldl happily extend the olive leaf
But if you want me dead
If war's what you want then a war's what you'll get
So I fear for our children
And pray we don't use them
As weapons with which to cause each other pain
I listen to them, you just push them away

And if we're complacent
She'll catch her break
Cos she waits for mistakes

She came back from yesterday
To laugh at our disarray
We argue and fight
So why waste all night
Pretending that one of us might change
That's when she'll claim victory
Our downfall her legacy
She's waiting in line
And biding her time
To sweep our remains in the bin of history
And when the world sees the mess we're in
She'll bury us both
Thrust a flagpole in
And dance on our graves
