Can We Stop Trying To Win?

Another day I wake up, not really rested And every move reminds me of the wounds that never healed right What have I gained from being daily tested? I guess I learned just enough to make it through the night I'm so tired of this game And the villains we've been Can we end all the pain? Can we stop trying to win? Can we put down the knives? I will never give in If I fall we both lose Can we stop trying to win? Your tactics might succeed, and leave me bleeding And for a moment you might cheer, get drunk on your delight Your strategy is flawed, we're both defeated The price we pay is far too much Recovery is not in sight I'm so tired of this game And the villains we've been Can we end all the pain? Can we stop trying to win? Can we put down the knives? I will never give in If I fall we both lose Can we stop trying to win? You think I hold you back, just weight you drag around But I'm the one who keeps you tethered to the ground Without me to laugh at stupid things you say You'd shoot your foot off in a week or just a day I'm so tired of this game And the villains we've been Can we end all the pain? Can we stop trying to win? Can we put down the knives? I will never give in If I fall we both lose Can we stop trying to win? Can we put down the knives? I will never give in If I fall we both lose Can we stop trying to win?
