[Verse 1]
I watch the days rush by me like a river
I shouldn't wait, but I'm scared to touch the water
I let the phone ring
Why won't you believe me?
I wait for silence
It takes a lot not to answer

[Pre-Chorus]
All I have to say is you don't deserve me, you don't deserve me
I'm finally walkin' away
'Cause you don't deserve me, and you're not worthy

[Chorus]
And I won't let you pull me in
Because I know you're gonna win
(The war is over), but the war is over (The war is over)
And I won't fight you anymore
I've never been so sure
(The war is over) The war is over

[Verse 2]
I used to let you paint a pretty picture
You got me caught up with your "You're my girl forever"
So I forgive you, it felt good when you'd hold me
Yeah, you owned me
Now you wish you had really known me
[Pre-Chorus]
All I have to say is you don't deserve me, you don't deserve me
I'm finally walkin' away
'Cause you'll only hurt me, and you're not worthy
Yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
And I won't let you pull me in
Because I know you're gonna win
(The war is over), but the war is over (The war is over)
And I won't fight you anymore
I've never been so sure

[Bridge]
This is not my surrender
I'm not runnin' for cover
I'm right here, I know you see me
But your words no longer defeat me
In the night when you're lonely
You remember how much you miss me
So you call, but I swear
You can try a million times, you'll get the same answer

[Pre-Chorus]
All I have to say is you don't deserve me, you don't deserve me
Yeah, yeah
I'm finally walking away
'Cause you'll only hurt me, and you're not worthy
[Chorus]
And I won't let you pull me in
Because I know you're gonna win
(The war is over), but the war is over (The war is over)

[Outro]
The war is over
The war is over
The war is over
The war is over
The war is over
The war is over
The war is over
