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?

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?
