I pull the pin off the grenade and toss it gently in the middle Honey let's not kid ourselves, that's the devil with his fiddle He's playing our song again, and it's starting to rub off I clench my teeth to pa** the pain, but my jaw is turning soft This eagles eye view is k**ing it all for me You've got full access to the heart, but all you do is break the key You might be model, but are you willing to play your role Buried deep inside that bottle is a window to the soul And you have to tell me what it is that's so amazing From the outside looking in it doesn't seem worth saving You plea for bargains, mercy, grace, and all the rest But i can't seem to give it to you, with this boulder on my chest And i want it gone, but you won't take it anymore Here's another string of words i've saved from the k**ing floor What would you think if i sang out of tune Would you stand up and walk out on me? What would you do if i'm not what i'm supposed to be? Lend me your ears and i'll sing you a song And i'll try not to sing out of key What would you do if i'm not what i'm not what i'm supposed to be? Stress and life get packaged like forks and knives One for destroying and another for stabbing insite
Just a few more miles with this plastic carrot in sight I'm tired of pulling you s**ers, but i'll do my job tonight I stretch these old bones and take a good look at my reflection But i can't see anything that's really worth a mention Oh, there i am just a speck at the bottom Or more like a stain waiting to be forgotten I'm an empty carca**, a hopeless case with a broken lock But i'll be alright my skins thick like a wet blanket full of rocks This is me, a reality, a skinless mess trying to hold it all together Please don't let me be your goal, i'm a rusty car without leather No sunroof, no fancy engine, and no cd I'm all hubcaps, am/fm, and it costs extra if it's free I will point at you, i will put you down I will disappoint you every time i make these sounds So leave now, forget me, save yourself instead You are nothing Love, the voice inside my head What would you think if i sang out of tune Would you stand up and walk out on me? What would you do if i'm not what i'm supposed to be? Lend me your ears and i'll sing you a song And i'll try not to sing out of key What would you do if i'm not what i'm not what i'm supposed to be?
