The night is dark and long
and the tears won't be held back
as I sit alone in the night
with nothing but my thoughts.
Baby how did we come to this?
How is this what we've become,
barely talking and bitterness,
keeping score of our injuries
instead of the amount we love?
We always said this wasn't who we were,
that we'd never turn into this
and that our love was worth the fight
but lately all we do is argue
and baby I'm so tired.
Baby please, your making my heart hurt
as you throw your angry words
and vengeful cold shoulder,
I have no more defenses,
you know how to cut the deepest.
How have we become this?
Playing a game of who can hurt who
and who can make it sting the worst?
This isn't who I want to be
and I don't want this for you.
Baby, I still love you so much
but how did we let it get so bad
that we can't just see the love,
instead we see the "but you never"s
and all the times we've hurt each other?
They say that hope dies last
and we're fighting this battle bravely
but it feels like an uphill run
and like we're fighting a losing battle,
losing ground so quickly.
Baby please, your making my heart hurt
as you throw your angry words
and vengeful cold shoulder,
I have no more defenses,
you know how to cut the deepest.
We're getting so exhausted
and I'm so tired of the tears,
our hearts crack just a little more
as the days pass us by,
baby, what do we do?
Are we fighting a losing battle
that we're just trying to stave off?
Do we have a chance in hell
to make this truly work
or are we racing towards the end?
Baby, I'm so scared
as we go to bed again
with brisk words and no affection
for yet another night....
