Why stick around when it just hurts?, that's the million dollar question
What's the point of trying to work it out when it just don't work?
Why keep trying?..
The problem is that i know the answers
I'm supposed to say cause love is worth the war
But what do you do when the fairy tale truth-
Just don't work for you anymore?
You give up, you give up, throw in towel, and wave the white flag
And say you had enough, you give up, you give up
When there's no more fight left in you
And your best just ain't enough
There's nothing left to do but give up
Why struggle on when you can't win? that's the million dollar question, oh
If everything says let it why can't you let it in?
Why keep punishing yourself?
You see the problem is that i know the answers
I'm supposed to say cause love is worth the war
But what do you do when the fairy tale truth-
Just don't work for you anymore?
You give up, you give up, throw in towel, and wave the white flag
And say you had enough, you give up, you give up
When there's no more fight left in you
And your best just ain't enough
There's nothing left to do but give up
What's the point of trying to work it out when it just don't work?
Why keep trying?..
The problem is that i know the answers
I'm supposed to say cause love is worth the war
But what do you do when the fairy tale truth-
Just don't work for you anymore?
You give up, you give up, throw in towel, and wave the white flag
And say you had enough, you give up, you give up
When there's no more fight left in you
And your best just ain't enough
There's nothing left to do but give up
Why struggle on when you can't win? that's the million dollar question, oh
If everything says let it why can't you let it in?
Why keep punishing yourself?
You see the problem is that i know the answers
I'm supposed to say cause love is worth the war
But what do you do when the fairy tale truth-
Just don't work for you anymore?
You give up, you give up, throw in towel, and wave the white flag
And say you had enough, you give up, you give up
When there's no more fight left in you
And your best just ain't enough
There's nothing left to do but give up
