lyrics

I'm looking out for falling knives and bricks, becuase I heard you've got a bone to pick with me / Now I can't sleep cause I'm worried sick that I'll wake up with an icepick in my brain / Keeping the door locked might keep you away, but I dunno if it's gonna keep me sane when I have pills just to make it to the end of the day

And so my bed's got a handgun underneath, I've got a suicide pill in between my teeth, I've got a 6-inch blade for my own relief / And I've got nothing but your letters in the mail to keep me up at night planning how I'll get out alive if you decide that's enough and now it's time I die

If you break in tonight, this is what I'll cry: 2, 3, 4, no no oh don't break down the door

So why can't we pick up the pieces? Why can't just everybody make up, take a break til the tension decreases? Just practice, treat it like a break up? Why can't we smooth out the creases? I don't wanna go to bed and never wake up

I'm looking out for the pieces of your mind you feed to me when you feel like wasting time / Not that they work how you want, like cyanide, strychnine, mustard gas, or any poison in kind, because I keep every bottle I've got underneath my kitchen sink full to the brim of the antidote, see / Take a chill pill, take a single second to breathe, and you might see it's not worth taking a hatchet to me


So why can't we pick up the pieces? Why can't just everybody make up, take a break til the tension decreases? Just practice, treat it like a break up? Why can't we smooth out the creases? I don't wanna go to bed and never wake up

You've gotta find some way to cut this out, cause I don't wanna hear it, never again, not now / My heart beats harder when you're around / It's not a matter of holier-than-thou

But it's a fact your temper ceases when you enact blood sugar increases / And it ain't helping you to hear these speeches / So maybe all you need are Snickers or Reese's
