We know we can hurt each other real bad
You know my weak spots, I know yours
How we come we egg each other on and on
Like battered boxers staying the course

How come we never ever come to blows
When we want to break each others necks
How come we stab each other with these words
When all we really want is sex

Why can't we talk it out
Why can't we fight it out
Why can't we kiss and go to bed

The seething angers burns around the room
The carefully poisoned arrows fly
And in the morning dirty tired hearts
And the scars of battle in our eyes
