lyrics

keep that knife clinched tightly to your chest
this is gonna be a long night for perpetual second best
keeping track through scratched arms that suspend me
holding back all the secrets within me, I can't forget
tell me I've had enough

this bottle is the steps up to the cliff
and you're the ledge looking out over the watery depths
and I'm the rock patiently sitting
too stupid not to find himself getting in over his head
I think I've had enough

so carve away all of the edges and shapes in me
just gouge away, there's nothing on the inside
or better yet just smile and do nothing
I'd rather sink myself down to the bottom

this is where I'll stay
leave this stone unturned
I think by now we should've learned
some of the highest ledges known to man
once lied down in the ocean's bed
when you find yourself there again
I'll be swallowed up by the starving sand

so bombs away
might as well take it all tonight, I say
so bombs away
I'll take it all tonight

breathe in the pity
I can't fault you
it's my fault too
breathe
