Can We Stop Trying to Win? Lyrics

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?
