Can we call a truce? We both have our truths 

And I just wish this god damn mess... 

We could try and play it cool when it's going down 

I don't wanna fight 



Can we call a truce? We both have our truths 

And I just wish this God damn mess... 

We could try and play it cool 

I don't wanna fight, to lose you 



I wrote a list of my demands, but I left it at a friend's 

I rehearsed a little speech, but the whole thing got too preechy 

So it seems like I'm back on scratch again 

I read a magazine last night, all our issues came to light 

I memorised it piece by piece, but I guess it's not that easy 

Now it seems like I'm back on scratch again 



And it seems like in all the fighting we're losing sight 

And it feels like all this time we once were tight 

And it seems like we're supposed to be side by side 

All I wanna do is set things right 



Can we call a truce? We both have our truths 

And I just wish this god damn mess... 

We could try and play it cool when it's going down 

I don't wanna fight, I know I'm not right

I met you never asking sheer advice, to wise up and to make nice 

I always thought she was a bore, but then that's another story 

And I feel like I'm back on scratch again 

And at this show the other night I met your friend the skinny guy 

I swear he tried to make a pass, I guess he never was too classy 

And I feel like I'm back on scratch again 



And it seems like in all the fighting we're losing sight 

And it feels like all this time we once were tight 

And it seems like we're supposed to be side by side 

All I wanna do is set things right

If we can't reconcile then can we just not fight? 

Every second that you're gone I want you by my side 

Another minute with you not around, I just might lose my mind 

Was I wrong all the while or were you just not right? 

We're supposed to be side by side 

All I wanna do is set things right 



Can we call a truce? We both have our truths
