We Never Killed Each Other / But Didn't We Try? Lyrics

(Dallas Wayne, Robbie Fulks)

V.1
OUR EYES MET AND I DIDN�T TURN SICK IN THE DANCE HALL
WE TOOK TO LOVIN� AND THE WORLD DIDN�T END IN A FIREBALL
AS THE YEARS WENT PAST, MY MIND NEVER SNAPPED,
THOUGH IT STRETCHED A LOT
NOW I�M A GETTIN� OUT WITH WHATEVER LITTLE GOOD I�VE GOT

V.2
�CAUSE YOU LEFT SOMETHIN� ON ME, YOU MIGHT CALL AN IMPRINT
I NEVER REALIZED JUST HOW MUCH MY OWN NECK MEANT
GUESS A MAN GETS MORBID WHEN THERE�S POTS IN ORBIT AND KNIVES ALOFT
BETTER CUT MY LOSSES, BEFORE SOMETHING ELSE GETS CUT OFF

CH.
YEAH, WE NEVER KILLED EACH OTHER - BUT DIDN�T WE TRY
NEVER DID MUCH HARM, THOUGH WE NEVER LET A CHANCE GO BY
YOU CAN KEEP THE LOVE, I�M LUCKY JUST TO BE ALIVE
WE NEVER KILLED EACH OTHER, BUT DIDN�T WE TRY

V.3
WELL, NOTHIN� SAYS LOVE LIKE AN EIGHT OUNCE GLOVE, YOU USED TO TELL ME
BUT A SECOND HONEYMOON IN THE EMERGENCY ROOM AIN�T HEALTHY
THOUGH I SHOT THE BREEZE WITH SOME CUTE MD�S AND A NURSE OR TWO
I WAS ALWAYS TOO BEAT-UP TO EVER EVEN CHEAT ON YOU

V.4
NOW, I�M NO SAINT WITH A SPOTLESS RECORD,THAT�S CERTAIN
AND IF YOU ADD IT ALL UP, WE BOTH HAD A SHARE IN THE HURTIN�
WE COULD CHECK OUT SOON, OR WE COULD LICK OUR WOUNDS
AND JUST WALK AWAY
LAY DOWN OUR ARMS, AND LIVE TO LOVE ANOTHER DAY
