tug o' war

tired of talking maybe you should just go home tired of chasing after your damn dreams when i can't even find my own well wouldn't it be nice for a change if you actually listened to the words i'm saying but no all you wanna do is talk about you it's getting familiar you pull on the rope i'll tug it back wish it were simpler with me nothing's simple hey that's just a fact but what about the time back then when you first told me you loved me and then well was that all a lie no no just something here in my eye now i'm gonna stop my crying gonna pick myself up off the ground and i'm gonna show you just how strong i'll be with or without you around i may be young but i'm smart enough to know that you'll be left playing tug 'o' war with a rope i've already let go same old story boy meets girl boy falls in love well not in this story just two boys here what's the matter ain't that enough well one thing nonna taught me to do is to respect others as they do you and child don't give your heart away 'less you're sure that one will stay well now i'm gonna stop my crying gonna pick myself up off the floor and i'm gonna show you just how strong i'll be with or without you yeah well even more it may take time but i'm sure enough to know you'll be left playing tug 'o' war with a rope i've already let go well i' ve had enough twos to know that you weren't the one and i've had enough threes and fours to know when there's nothing more left to say but hey take care and have a nice day yeah have yourself a nice day now i'm gonna stop my crying gonna pick myself up off the ground and i'm gonna show you just how damn strong i'll be especially not having you around i may be young but i'm old enough to know that you'll be left playing tug 'o' war with a rope i' ve finally learned to let go
