Soft Option - Lower

Step aside

Take precautions

Gracefully

Fend off conflict

A technique turned into routine

A twisting of all the right things

You say that I don't care for dialogue

You say that I'm past praying for

The tension's tearing at your heartstrings

Rioting under your skin

But now darling you're on your back again

Let's call a truce on this occasion

Step aside

Take precautions

Gracefully

Stay out of conflict

And while I try to mend fences

You truculently kick holes in them

And when I hold out my hand

You leave it there untouched

The tension's tearing at your heartstrings

Rioting under your skin

But now darling you're on your back again

Let's call a truce on this occasion

You say mutual understanding is ancient history

But I sure can feel the tension

Tearing at your heartstrings

Rioting under your skin

But now darling you look ravishing

Let's call a truce on this occasion
