Can we call a truce? We both have our truths

And I just wish this god damn mess...


We could try and play it cool when it's going down


I don't wanna fight




Can we call a truce? We both have our truths


And I just wish this God damn mess...

We could try and play it cool


I don't wanna fight, to lose you




I wrote a list of my demands, but I left it at a friend's


I rehearsed a little speech, but the whole thing got too preechy


So it seems like I'm back on scratch again

I read a magazine last night, all our issues came to light


I memorised it piece by piece, but I guess it's not that easy


Now it seems like I'm back on scratch again




And it seems like in all the fighting we're losing sight


And it feels like all this time we once were tight

And it seems like we're supposed to be side by side


All I wanna do is set things right




Can we call a truce? We both have our truths


And I just wish this god damn mess...


We could try and play it cool when it's going down

I don't wanna fight, I know I'm not right





Can we call a truce? We both have our truths

And I just wish this god damn mess...


We could try and play it cool


I don't wanna fight, to lose you




I met you never asking sheer advice, to wise up and to make nice


I always thought she was a bore, but then that's another story

And I feel like I'm back on scratch again


And at this show the other night I met your friend the skinny guy


I swear he tried to make a pass, I guess he never was too classy

And I feel like I'm back on scratch again




And it seems like in all the fighting we're losing sight


And it feels like all this time we once were tight

And it seems like we're supposed to be side by side

All I wanna do is set things right




Can we call a truce? We both have our truths


And I just wish this God damn mess...

We could try and play it cool when it's going down

I don't wanna fight, I know I'm not right




Can we call a truce? We both have our truths

And I just wish this God damn mess...


We could try and play it cool

I don't wanna fight, to lose you




If we can't reconcile then can we just not fight?

Every second that you're gone I want you by my side

Another minute with you not around, I just might lose my mind

Was I wrong all the while or were you just not right?


We're supposed to be side by side

All I wanna do is set things right




Can we call a truce? We both have our truths

And I just wish this God damn mess...

We could try and play it cool when it's going down

I don't wanna fight, I know I'm not right




Can we call a truce? We both have our truths

And I just wish this God damn mess...


We could try and play it cool

I don't wanna fight, to lose you
