I'd rather let her leave than take this to my grave
And you'd better read between the lines
It's not the place or time to gloss things over
Please take this weight off my shoulders
[?]
Is it such a crime to sit back, relax, and unwind?
(In the executioners suite, preoccupied with mental gymnastics)
Is it such a chore; do I bore or annoy you more?
Oh!
Can you watch me act your age
Trust me it's all the rage backstage
(Well this onе takes the cake)
[?]
[?]
I'll cut you off
A cut abovе the rest
Let me pay you a compliment
Or at least pay my respects in fools gold
And I'd hear your old speech but your rope's untied
Your silver linings are tongue and cheek
Let me see you grit those teeth
Things aren't always as they seem
(I cannot wake you up from this blue dream)
When you cherry-pick your problems
You'll find out that you'll never ever really solve them
You compare apples to oranges
While avoiding solutions
You reap what you sow, well so what?

You live at your own discretion
Wasting away all your precious potential

It's equally reckless and haphazard

You slide down chutes
While I climb up ladders
Can we [?] pity party
Spiraling[?]
For falling asleep at the wheel

See me at red lights

You leave the engine running, running, running
I spend my days [?] falling

It's a sore subject and I'm a nervous wreck
You have nothing but [?] by yourself to get stuck in a rut

Practice what you preach, don't be a leech
