I try to hold my tongue but I can't Taming a fire don't make me a better man I try but I'm fooling myself Making love don't make love work Hearts cease fire until we find a new hurt It feels like you wanna shoot first I keep fighting 'cause I never learn You cry in defense 'cause it burns I keep fighting 'cause I never learn I try but I'm fooling myself So broken can't find the right peace Down so long damn near forgot how to breathe I'd try but I'm fooling myself Hard to find your hand in the dark Say you wanna touch But your hand don't reach that far It feels like you wanna shoot first I keep fighting 'cause I never learn You cry in defense 'cause it burns I keep fighting 'cause I never learn I try but I'm fooling myself Why try when you wanna shoot first? Stop fighting 'cause you never learn I cry in defense 'cause it burns You try but you're fooling yourself
