It's never just a war of words
There's always some kind of hidden agenda
All you ever want from me

Is a white flag & a quiet surrender
This could be for ever more
As long as I succumb & suffer in silence
Love is like a battlefield
Where words are soldiers & talk is violence

I'm just doing the best I can
But I'm not your alpha man
I'm doing the best I can
But I'm not your alpha man

All you ever want me to be
Is another dead butterfly to add to your collection
Trapped in the killing jar
Tethered & bound to your idea of perfection
