The minute you walk into the room
|
It's like you're headed to the ring and you're ready to swing
|
You jump to your conclusions too soon
|
How can you disagree before understanding me?
|
I've avoided your confrontations too
|
But here on the inside it's growing and growing and I've...
|
|
Been waiting for our worlds to collide
|
Not interest for the other side
|
I'm wrong, you're wrong, I'm right
|
When I wait for another fight
|
|
Do you always have to have the last word?
|
Does this end for us with just another crash and burn?
|
|
So here we meet in the ring
|
Where no one officiates and no one to mediate
|
You play the offender I take my heed
|
I feel your strain and the pain and the sting
|
The way you're looking into me
|
Has me thinking that you and I will not let this end in a tie
|
|
Do you always get to have the last word?
|
Does this end for us with just another crash and burn
|
|
Oh I know that there can be redemption
|
Inside I know you just need my attention that's for sure
|
And I think that we can make concession
|
Patience is such a priceless lesson
|
Won't you learn it with me?
|
Oh won't you learn it with me?
|
Will you ever learn?
|
You will never learn...
|
|
(We are foot to foot in the ring, bruised and bloodied, guards up and winded.
|
We have not heard a bell and we haven't stopped to listen,
|
and after all the blows we've thrown, I don't even know who's winning.
|
All the doors have been opened and closed just as fast.
|
Remember when we were so gracious and enlightened, turning the other cheek?
|
Oh pointless diplomacy. Trading punches with our knuckles bleeding,
|
we lost the gloves long ago, we are far past apologies.
|
Stuck on the canvas with only our own reasons,
|
Our eyes are too swollen to see anything differently.)
|
|
You will never learn
|
|
Do you always have to have the last word?
|
You will swing and miss and hit the ground and then you'll crash and burn
|
|
Waiting for our worlds to collide
|
No interest for the other side
|
I'm wrong, you're wrong, now I'm right
|
For getting out before the fight
