Tug of War

Tug of War

 

Hard time wrapping your mind around what I do

I don’t care

Not here for your pleasing, go ahead just leave me

You think you’re so perfect,

I find that funny

Now you’re calling me “honey"

This just ain’t worth it

Playing games of tug of war

Will you lose this round or me?

I’m wasting my air

I can find someone better, and so can you

We’re through

Hold up, don’t you grab my hand

No way, I’m going through with plans this time,

Ima pack my bags, ima get my shit and go
Can’t stay here no more

This is a prison, We’re both not living,

Consuming each other, We’re not lovers

Though we wish we were

Oh, how we wish that we were the ones

Now right back to searching for love,

But something more real, hate how this feels

Maybe I’ll see you one day again,

Maybe then we can try the process of friends,

When the current isn’t so strong
