Nobody Wins
Love's Battle: Nobody Wins in the Tug of Hearts
Lyrics
You say this ain't over yet
You assert that the relationship is not yet concluded.
I've said things that I regret
Admission of expressing regrettable words or actions.
Won't be easy to forget
Emphasizing the difficulty of moving on from the situation.
Scars take time to heal
Highlighting the time required for emotional wounds to heal.
Before another bitter word gets loose
Preventing the escalation of conflict with more hurtful words.
I was hoping we could call a truce
Expressing a desire for reconciliation and a ceasefire.
Cause nobody wins, we both lose
Stating that in conflicts, there are no winners; both parties suffer.
Hearts get broken and love get bruised
Describing the collateral damage in relationships, where hearts are broken and love is wounded.
When we light that same old fuse
Referring to the repetition of destructive patterns in the relationship.
Again and again
Highlighting the cyclical nature of conflicts.
Nobody wins slamming doors
Pointing out that arguments lead to both partners losing.
We've both lost this fight before
Acknowledging a history of losing similar battles in the relationship.
And I won't play that game no more
Committing to avoid participating in destructive patterns.
Cause nobody wins
Reiterating that no one emerges victorious in relationship conflicts.
Darlin' we've got too much pride
Recognizing the role of pride in preventing resolution.
It don't matter who's wrong or right
Emphasizing that love is complex and not easily categorized as right or wrong.
Honey love ain't black and white
Rejecting a simplistic view of love as either good or bad.
It's the way I feel about you
Expressing deep feelings for the partner.
All I wanna do is hold you tight
Desiring physical closeness and comfort.
I can't take another angry night
Expressing the inability to endure another night of conflict.
When nobody wins, we both lose
Reiterating that in conflicts, both individuals suffer.
Hearts get broken and love get bruised
Stressing the recurring damage to hearts and love in the relationship.
When we light that same old fuse
Referring to the repetition of the same destructive behaviors.
Again and again
Highlighting the cyclic nature of conflicts.
Nobody wins slamming doors
Repeating the idea that slamming doors symbolizes defeat for both.
We've both lost this fight before
Acknowledging past instances of losing similar battles.
And I won't play that game no more
Reaffirming the decision to break the cycle of destructive behavior.
Cause nobody wins
Restating that no one emerges victorious in relationship conflicts.
I know something's bound to break
Anticipating a breaking point if there is no compromise.
If we don't bend
Pleading for flexibility and willingness to compromise.
Baby, what's it gonna take
Questioning what it will take to avoid mutual loss.
Nobody wins, we both lose
Reiterating that in conflicts, both individuals suffer.
Hearts get broken and love get bruised
Stressing the recurring damage to hearts and love in the relationship.
When we light that same old fuse
Referring to the repetition of the same destructive behaviors.
Again and again
Highlighting the cyclic nature of conflicts.
Nobody wins slamming doors
Repeating the idea that slamming doors symbolizes defeat for both.
We've both lost this fight before
Acknowledging past instances of losing similar battles.
And I won't play that game no more
Reaffirming the decision to break the cycle of destructive behavior.
Cause nobody wins
Restating that no one emerges victorious in relationship conflicts.
Nobody wins
Emphasizing the futility of seeking a winner in relationship conflicts.
Nobody wins

Nobody wins
Concluding that in the game of love, there are no winners.
