Have you ever had that fight within yourself of right and wrong?
Well, the one in me can't find a compromise to get along
See, I know I can't have you, know it isn't worth a try
But every time I'm near you I can't help but live the lie
Convincing myself this could be the day you'll see the light
Turn around and realize that it's me you want tonight
These feelings take me over and I don't know where to turn
You're never going to love me back, when will I ever learn?
Once again, my head says to my heart it won't end well
But my heart shrugs it off and tells my head to go to Hell
Have you ever had that arguement between yourself and you?
You're suddenly divided and you don't know what to do
Every night I pray to God that you'll give me a shot
Forget the things you think you know and go with what you've got
But I start feeling stupid cause I know just what you'd say
"I'm sorry, I don't want you", you don't look at me that way
I tell myself that I should give up, I should let it go
But then your eyes meet mine like that and, baby, I don't know
Once again, my head says to my heart it won't end well
But my heart shrugs it off and tells my head to go to Hell
Have you ever felt conflicted, your soul clashing with your mind?
Somehow love and hate find ways to become intertwined
I know I'm no good for you and you're no good for me
But sometimes I just close my eyes, pretend that I can't see
How is it that you've found me, but I've never felt so lost?
Who put the price on happiness and how much does it cost?
It's candy-coated sadness, I'm smiling as I cry
I feel so alive with you, but then I want to die
Once again, my head says to my heart it won't end well
But my heart shrugs it off and tells my head to go to Hell
Have you ever? Yes, I know you have, like every other day
You feel it for a moment, then the moment goes away
It's like reaching out for something that you know is just not there
You're sending me mixed signals and it really isn't fair
I know I should stop myself before I hit the ground
But somehow I have faith you'll catch me, that you'll come around
I'm struggling with myself inside and I can't make it end
This relentless inner battle 'bout the status of a friend
I want you to want me, but you won't, I can tell
My head, my heart; my heart, my head; they both can go to Hell
