Must you do this? Treat me ruthless

Make excuses when the truth is that the thought still comes

Now and then, when you′re in privateYou're considered then the silence tends to sound like drums

You′re pretending you don't care

So I'm doing the same

I like you more when you′re taken

Oh, Lord, you′re good at this game

Don't do me dirty, show me some mercy

Darling, please lay down your weaponry

How did I end up somewhere between a

Lover and a memory?

′Cause I don't believe in a halfway heart

And you gave me all of my favorite scars

How did I end up somewhere between a

Lover and a memory?

I been drinking, I been smoking, I been waiting

I been hoping that there′s still some chance

You and me can find a reason to believe in

All them weekends that we used to have

You're pretending you don′t care

So I'm doing the same

I like you more when you're taken

Oh, Lord, you′re good at this game

Don′t do me dirty, show me some mercy

Darling, please lay down your weaponry (please lay down your weaponry)

How did I end up somewhere between a

Lover and a memory?

'Cause I don′t believe in a halfway heart (a halfway heart)

And you gave me all of my favorite scars

How did I end up (how did I?) somewhere between a

Lover and a memory?

Don't do me dirty, show me some mercy

Darling, please lay down your weaponry

How did I end up somewhere between a

Lover and a memory?

′Cause I don't believe in a halfway heart

And you gave me all of my favorite scars

How did I end up somewhere between a

Lover and a memory?
