Perfect Word Songtext

von k.d. lang and the Siss Boom Bang

The fire from your tongue is burning uncontrollably
Standing with your back to the wall
Striking back is bringing out the worst in me
I'm only human after all

I don't need to win this fight
I just want to make it right
Why's it always go unheard
That perfect word

These heated exchanges are consuming me
And bringing my heart down to its knees
This conversation's complications
Baby, we just love to disagree

I don't need to win the fight
I just want to make it right
Why's it always go unheard
That perfect word

From the fire to the flame
From the ashes love remains

No I don't need to win the fight
I just want to make it right
Why's it always go unheard
That perfect word
