Tug of War

de Nico Collins

Corner of the couch
With the bottle to your mouth, yeah
No I don’t know why I’m staying here
Avoiding every truth
Cuz we thought we’d never lose
But it’s obvious to me
We’re floating in a sea
Of lies that never come to shore
To shore
And you make it pretty clear
That we’re sinking till we can’t no more, no more

Looking at you stings
Like all the finer things
That I waste away to see you smile for a second but it’s never enough
I’ve played every card but you see through my though bluff

How’d we get to this place two strangers in a tug of war, tug of war
Cuz baby when you’re yelling at me I don’t know what we’re fighting for, fighting for
It’s hard for me to think of the words I’m supposed to say
Cuz what I’m supposed to say
Don’t matter anyways
So tell me how’d we get to this place two strangers in a tug of war, tug of war
And I know were bout to blow
I know we’re bout to blow
I know we’re bout to blow
We've been floating in a sea
Of lies that never come to shore
To shore
Let em carry us away
Cuz I’m tired of the tug of war
No, no, no, no
