In The Ring

Third night in your room again With the windows open There's a photo up above your bed The two of you were smiling You pick a fight because you're hurting I'll step in the ring and I won't talk You see the line my eyes are rolling And I'll push back even if it's wrong Tiny seat in a crowded bar Did they hear us laughing All the x's on your calendar Makes me wonder why we counted It's nice to know that you're calling Even when you want to write me off The scene is still but I keep turning Pages in the dark I memorized it all Read the map, check the floor plan There's drums in the corner If things go bad, we can give it up Start a band and get closer It's moving soon the cards are folding Hardly had time to build up all the walls The puzzle pieces scattered hoping We won't look too hard, we won't find them all I pick a fight because I'm hurting I'll step in the ring and I won't talk You see the line my eyes are rolling And I'll push back even if it's wrong
