"Opposites" lyrics

Do you hate the things I say
Or do you love the way I play
With your tongue when it's late
At night

Would you call if I need help
Or would you take care of yourself
While I'm crying in the bathroom sink?

'Cause you love me when things are right
But we never talk when we fight

Why am I trying for someone who doesn't even try
Why am I forcing the pieces if yours don't fit with mine
Why am I trying to hold on if in the end we'll just let go
'Cause all we do is fix then we break it
We're the problem we can't solve

And it took a couple months
'Til we finally called it off
Convincing everybody that we're great

But I don't really get the point
Of spreading lies to seal the void
And you do all of this for your own sake

'Cause you're just in love with the thought
That I'm too afraid to let you go

So why am I trying for someone who doesn't even try
Why am I forcing the pieces if yours don't fit with mine
Why am I trying to hold on if in the end we'll just let go
'Cause all we do is fix then we break it
We're the problem we can't solve
