I Would Rather Lose You Than the Argument

I would rather lose you than
The argument
Rather call it quits
Than to let you win

You said, "Don't worry 'bout it"
Sweeping the past right under the carpet
Slow it down
I'm seeking justice
'Cause you killed me one too many times
I'm calling the witness
You left town and me to suffer
You got quiet
I feel like I'm forcing you to talk to me
But I guess
It's always my fault
'Cause when we fall, we fall hard

I would rather lose you than
The argument
Rather call it quits
Than to let you win
You'll have to break me
'Cause my pride don't bend
Don't try it
Don't try me
I would rather lose you than
The argument
Rather call it quits
Than to let you win

We built a home
Of sticks and stones
It swept away
Your words still hurt
We ride in a lonely limo
Like it's a hearse
Will this only get worse?
Who's really at fault?
Ego is our downfall

I would rather lose you than
The argument
Rather call it quits
Than to let you win
You'll have to break me
'Cause my pride don't bend
Don't try it
Don't try me
I would rather lose you than
The argument
Rather call it quits
Than to let you win

Your hand in mine now in the pocket
Your nags drip-drip like a leaky faucet
It won't turn off, and I can't escape it
Every day is harder
Pull the plug right out of the socket
The second we start
No, there's no way to stop it
Simmer down
Your tongue's electric
And you know what?

I would rather lose you than
The argument
Rather call it quits
Than to let you win
You'll have to break me
'Cause my pride don't bend
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
