championship match

[darlin_sane]

i'm growing tired of this dance, honey
and you're tired of waking up tired
slip off those old boxing gloves
i was never much of a pugilist anyway
shine a light on me
you're a torch, snuffed out
don't knock me down
i want to take you home and
give up this town

i'm growing tired of fighting, baby
and you're tired of taking five
pull off your kid gloves for now
you're always roughing me up anyhow
light a match for me
we're gonna burn out tonight
don't hand me all the blame
it's all i can do not to fall on my knees
when you're around
