Can We Call A Truce

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.

[Pre-Chorus]
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.

[Chorus:]
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.

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

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.

[Chorus]
