Lyrics

Stop Trying

We like you
This is a game already won
The time has come, stop trying

We like you
This is a game already won
Your time has come, stop trying

Take a break, you must be tired from the strain
Take a break and let us carry your pain
Please slow down, you are making my head spin
Please slow down, you have all I have to give

We like you
This is a game already won
The time has come, stop trying

We like you
This is a game already won
The time has come, stop trying

You don't know, you have everything you need
You won't grow 'til you get down on your knees
Say goodbye and do not dissect your lies
Say goodbye, there's no need to apologize

We like you
This is a game already won
The time has come, stop trying

We like you
This is a game already won
The time has come, stop trying

We like you
This is a game already won
The time has come, stop trying

We like you
This is a game already won
The time has come, stop trying
We like you
This is a game already won
The time has come, stop trying
We like you
This is a game already won
The time has come, stop crying
