lyrics

In a corner store you see yourself, the shelf says “everything must go!” In a way you’re on display, and you don’t feel the need to give a discount. You hit hard like car crash, then walk away like you never felt a thing. It’s like you think you’re taking out the trash… In a way I guess you are, and I’m it. Step right up, your life’s like a game. One life left, one foot in the grave. Once bitten, and two times as shy. Third time’s a charm, two wrongs is a right. Do I want it? Quit it. Hey, I need it. Leave it! All the time you waste, the bitter taste that you can’t get off your tongue. And you mistake the love for hate, and these words for concern. Your mind is like an overpriced sideshow under carnival lights. Step right up, we’re one and the same. Two drinks in, three players remain. Place your bets, four sides to the dice but anyway you throw you’ll always roll snake eyes. Five more times I’ve left you this way. Six more things you’ll never get to say. Seven more pills make it all go away, but heaven only knows how many you eight… Seasons come and go. Your heart is *10 below, and falling faster than you can understand. Hold on, we’re going down… But no one will hear the sound.
