Elephantelephone - Stephanie (Cut the sh**) lyrics

[Verse 1] My heart my drops Hides somewhere between my knees Like a scared cat And I feel like a child Playing Make Believe Losing terribly Stephanie says I ought to cut the sh** And get my priorities straight I always hated Stephanie anyways [Verse 2] You said you'd leave the window open But now I'm kicking down the door When the splinters fall I'll wait No more than a split second before I start tearing myself apart In the foyer I need to get away From you and from this place And from all of these goddamn machines Need to stop getting so lost In between dreams I need to breathe fresh air Instead of nicotine and THC Stephanie says I ought to cut the sh** And get my priorities straight I always hated Stephanie... [Chorus] Life Gave me what it did And now I'm left with Pitchers and pitchers of sour lemonade And just one straw Life Gave me what it did And now I'm left with Pitchers and pitchers of sour lemonade It's my mess now But sometimes I hear the hills whispering (x2) Cut your losses and run [Verse 3] My response thus far has been to hide But I've been stretching calves and my Feet and my knees and my thighs And now I feel my hollow broken lungs Thirsting for the city (x2) [Chorus] Life Life gave me what it did And now I'm left with Pitchers and pitchers of sour lemonade And just one straw Life Gave me what it did And now I'm left with Pitchers and pitchers of sour lemonade It's my mess now But sometimes I hear the hills whispering (x2) Cut your losses and run [Verse 4] It's funny The way things seem To work out like frayed strings Tying themselves into little knots We'd be blown away by wind If not for the tangles and the ties The snarled fingers And the locked eyes Together we're stronger than alone We would ever Ever be So why don't we Cut the sh** Stephanie
