All's fair in love and war,
But I can't do this anymore.
All's fair in love and war,
But I can't take it anymore.

We'll play out our final scenes
But you're reading different lines from me
lies will dance upon our lips
And blood will lace my fingertips
I'm so lost in everything you do
When the lights go down, it's me versus you
No, I can't keep up with you
Because all I've ever known is how to lose
We'll play out our final scenes
Where our hearts stop beating in time
We'll play out our final scenes
Where "I loved you" is the only line
You said to me
I'm hanging off every word you said
You tie this noose above this bed
I'm losing games of kiss and tell
But I've never lost a game so well
In your eyes, I'll lose my voice
This breaking heart is your weapon of choice
Are you ready for your close up?
Just pretend that we're in love

My own words will betray me
I'm tongue-tied from this wishful thinking
Because you're everything I want
And everything I never got
So don't hold your breath
Because it's nothing more than useless
But know I regret this
Loose lips sink ships
So say it like you mean it
I hate the way, I hate the way you bite your tongue
I'm just the ghost that warms your sheets
Your favourite worst memory
I hate the way, I hate the way you bite your tongue
Keep your eyes in your sockets where they belong
Keep your charm safety-pinned to the tip of your tongue
I don't belong underneath your thumb
So don't waste your time
Because it's not worth the weight in gold
But you love wasting mine
You cage your words behind your teeth
Are you afraid to mean them?
I'm just a secret that you keep
That you'll later regret
You cage your words behind your teeth
Are you afraid to mean them?
I'm just a secret that you keep

What Weighs Me Down

She said
"I'm gonna miss the weight of the world around my neck"
But I know
That you'll never change despite what you've said
We burnt bridges just to break the ice
No matter what I try, the words never come out right
I'm one part lust and two parts envy
At least you know the better part of me
So tie your words to the weight around my neck
And don't look back as I fall in the deep end
You know I've got the worst intentions
So brace yourself for the consequences
All of this was such a waste of time
I hope you choke when you swallow your pride
Because nothing's fair in love and war
And I don't want to do this anymore
And if the pen outdraws the sword
I'd have you hanging on with every word
But I can't, and I don't, and I wont
Do this anymore
So sink or swim
Don't you know timing is everything
But every time I try and fail
You drag me down again
