About an argument, no particular argument, more just the familiar feeling of a stupid argument about nothing growing into a giant magnifying glass on the larger, deeper problems in a relationship.

lyrics

Please tell me if that's not what you meant
'Cause at this point I'm afraid to ask
I can't tell which of us went too far
Or if I'm not going far enough

(maybe I should talk us down, negotiate or speak less loud but no)

Speaking through a megaphone
(Escalation)
Punches taken punches thrown
(Escalation)
Tell me if I'm getting through
(Escalation)
I'm just saying, you must be confused

We're turning into the folks we hate
Or maybe it's always been that way
These things are never worth the pain
But you and I are stubborn to a fault
You try to give a hint but you know I can't see cues quite like you do
I don't even know what I'm trying to prove anymore
Sometimes I think about how you and me could ever get along
I know this ain't right, but you're so wrong

(maybe I should talk us down, negotiate or speak less loud but no)

Speaking through a megaphone
(Escalation)
Punches taken punches thrown
(Escalation)
Tell me if I'm getting through
(Escalation)
Oh, what you're saying isn't true!
(Escalation)

I'm just saying, things have got to change
I'm just saying, things have got to change
I'm just saying, things have got to change
I'm just saying, things have got to change

I know I'm selfish,
I can't help it,
Maybe we could find a compromise,
Concede, you take half of my head
The half that would apologize
