Discovering the Waterfront

I will promise myself I won't care
Distracting myself from your stare
And I've seen this mistake once before
With your games I will never fall forI've hung up my guns
I won't kill againI won't forget you
I'm not gonna let you win
But I'm tired of lying, tired of fighting you
And it's not gonna changeYou asked for my heart
You know that I'm down
But not the way you lie to me and tear it all apart
And beg for me to stayI've sailed off to sea
I'm not coming backI won't forget you
I'm not gonna let you win
But I'm tired of lying, tired of fighting you, no
And it's not gonna changeCounting down, make that sound
And you know it makes no sense
Counting down till you mess around
And I know you can't ever changeWhen I'm trembling, thrown overboard
When I'm ready to relive the past
Counting down, make that sound
Break the silencePretend it's not forever, I'll pull myself together
I'll say that I'll forget her, I'll breathe
And I'll say she never hurt me and look at it as learning
And laugh about the good and the badBecause I will live forever, we don't belong together
I know I'll feel better, one day when I can make it throughI won't forget you
I'm not gonna let you win
But I'm tired of lying, tired of fighting you
And it's not gonna changeI won't forget you
I'm not gonna let you win
I'm tired of the lying, tired of fighting you
And it's not gonna change
