"i don't want to fight" lyrics

"i don't want to fight"

I don't wanna fight no more
This isn't what we signed up for
To be happy is too hard sometimes
I don't wanna fight no more
Don't wanna hear you slam the door
And hear my voice raise louder every time

Is this what love is?
Waging a war
With the one who holds me
Who's never let me down before

I wanna life with
A heart that's good
Help me stop crying
I wish I could

Keep pulling the wool over my eyes
Who are we kidding?
I just keep letting you down down down
My eyes are blood-red from the sleepless nights
And the second tries
And it doesn't matter who's right
I don't wanna fight
I don't wanna fight
Anymore
I don't wanna fight
I don't wanna fight
Anymore

I don't want to try if this is what we're fighting for
Violence in the eyes
A lover in a foreign form
Hold me back at the wall

Remember the words said
I'll never ever let you go
Show me the kindness
That I wish I could
Tears I don't know where
I don't know where to put

Keep pulling the wool over my eyes
Who are we kidding?
I just keep letting you down down down
My eyes are blood-red from the sleepless nights
And the second tries
And it doesn't matter who's right
I don't wanna fight
I don't wanna fight
Anymore
I don't wanna fight
I don't wanna fight
Anymore

I wanna know what I could do to get back to the start
Before the lies and the exit signs
We were wide-eyed to world
I know it's true I clung to you
For a way out outta here
Too cruel to be kind
And it works every time
