Take it back

Another one of those nights

It's 3am and we're still screaming

I try to hold them back

But the tears they just keep streaming

 

We hurt each other for no reason

Just to be the last to get a dig in

I don't want to do this anymore

But refuse to be the one who gives in

 

Until I can't take it anymore and cry...

Baby take that back

I know you don't mean it

But it hurts me just the same

Please take that back

Help me to unhear it

Take away the pain

 

They say words cut just like a knife

We both have scars that prove it

We swear each time will be the last

Next time we just won't do it

 

We'll remember our love and remember our vows

We'll remember how it feels to be so torn down

We're not gonna yell, we're not gonna fight

We're gonna talk it over till we get it right.....

 

Until I cry

Baby take that back

I know you don't mean it

But it hurts me just the same

Please take that back

Help me to unhear it

Take away the pain

Very true, its very lyrical and beautiful.

Good rhythm. Could use some more imagery to intensify a moment that is familiar to many.
