Promise me we won’t go to sleep with this poison on our lips Let’s take a breath while there’s something left And there’s love left to give Let’s don’t let our last words be the bad words We know we’ll still hurt tomorrow We can’t let this cruel wall be our downfall A prideful pill we can’t swallow You know me well enough to tear the soul right out of me And I know how to turn you inside out so please before we speak Leave it all unsaid, leave this war outside our bed Lay down our heads and dream instead
