Here We Are Again

There's an endless cycle we've fallen into,
A pattern that won't let us break free.
Why haven't we figured out how to break it yet?
Why must it always come back to me hurting you and you hurting me?

And here I am risking it all again for a chance to make things different this time.
Here I am, just laying it all down, out there in the open.
I guess we realize who we really are, what we really want
After the hundreth time we let ourselves get broken.

Another angry fight, another cliched mess, and another messy make-up;
It's as much as your fault as it is mine, but I'm not giving you all the blame.
Over and over again we've come here, even though the last time we said we wouldn't,
So at this point I don't care what happens, I just want you and I to be ok.

Maybe the arguing is telling us something, maybe it's giving us an excuse to let go.
But then again, maybe the fact that we always come back is telling us not to.
We can't say where we're going to go, but we already know what path we'll take.
Maybe I won't be there when you walk away, but remember I'll always love you.

Because here we are again, it seems we've come this way before.
And I'm done fighting it, I'm done caring where it leads to -we'll be back again.
So we're not ok, but I hope that you are and I know that I will be.
Here we are again, walking around in circles like always, it's not going to end.

There's an endless cycle we've fallen into,
A pattern that won't let us break free.
I know we haven't figured out how to break it yet,
But I just keep remembering that I love you and that you love me.
