[Intro: Jaymes Young & Phoebe Ryan]
Don't go to war for me
I'm not the one that you want me to be
Don't call me up at 2 a.m. tonight
It feels so damn good and I wish you would

[Verse 1: Jaymes Young]
Are we just gonna stay like this forever, floating?
I'm serious, my heart is furious
Cause I'm so confused when we're together
Feels like I'm choking, these emotions
I know I'm gonna let you down
So don't hold your breath now

[Pre-Chorus: Jaymes Young & Phoebe Ryan]
Bittersweet in your mouth
Can you stomach the doubt?
I wish I could say what I'm feeling
I'm scared to let these words out

[Chorus: Jaymes Young & Phoebe Ryan]
Don't go to war for me
I'm not the one that you want me to be
Don't call me up at 2 a.m. tonight
It feels so damn good and I wish you would
And don't cry no more for me
Don't waste your time convincing me
That maybe someday we'll get it right
Cause we never could, I wish that we would
[Post-Chorus: Jaymes Young & Phoebe Ryan]
But we won't, so just don't
We won't, so just don't
But we won't, so just don't
Don't

[Verse 2: Phoebe Ryan]
I can't trust you
Baby, cause I don't want to
This isn't fun anymore, never hurt like this before
Broken dishes on the floor
Hearts exploding
Tell me why I'm still holding
Onto the love that we've been breaking
Damn, I thought we'd make it
No other way to say it, don't, don't, don't

[Chorus: Jaymes Young & Phoebe Ryan]
Don't go to war for me
I'm not the one that you want me to be
Don't call me up at 2 a.m. tonight
It feels so damn good and I wish you would
And don't cry no more for me
Don't waste your time convincing me
That maybe someday we'll get it right
Cause we never could, I wish that we would
[Bridge: Jaymes Young & (Phoebe Ryan)]
We burn faster than a cigarette in my mouth
(I know it hurts, but baby, we can't stop now)
(Baby, we can't stop now)

[Chorus: Jaymes Young & Phoebe Ryan]
Don't go to war for me
I'm not the one that you want me to be
Don't call me up at 2 a.m. tonight
It feels so damn good and I wish you would
And don't cry no more for me
Don't waste your time convincing me
That maybe someday we'll get it right
Cause we never could, I wish that we would

[Post-Chorus: Jaymes Young & Phoebe Ryan]
But we won't, so just don't
We won't, so just don't
But we won't, so just don't
(We won't so just don't)
Don't
Don't
Don't
