Can't you say what you have in mind? 'Cause it's so hard to know where to compromise And what hill do we die on? And when can we just disagree? 'Cause I can't keep on fighting We won't get what we need With each day We take the blessing and the pain We both change We can't stay the same But this will get us nowhere We've been so wrong I know that this will get us nowhere Why can't you see? And I won't try to pretend It might be the end You know that this will get us nowhere Why can't you see who we could be? The pieces fit almost perfectly I was so amazed, it worked so easily But somehow we lost focus It slipped away, we made mistakes Should we keep on trying? What side will we take? Without grace We'll never last another day To save face We'll pass the blame But this will get us nowhere We've been so wrong I know that this will get us nowhere Why can't you see? And I won't try to pretend It might be the end You know that this will get us nowhere Why can't you see who we could be? It always makes me sick to see How we act when we don't get our own way Can we speak a little more clearly? We might need a little sincerity I never want to see you hurt But I didn't think about my words Can we take just one step back? And stop planning our next attack? This will get us nowhere We've been so wrong I know that this will get us nowhere Why can't you see? And I won't try to pretend It might be the end You know that this will get us nowhere Why can't you see who we could be?
