Think of all the places where you've been lost and then found out.

Yeah, a Dashboard lyric before I get this started.

"Please send me anything but singles that I've mixed, 'cause I can't read your rolling eyes."

Well, here's a single you mixed and you can try to read my rolling eyes all day but you'll still never. fucking. get it.



Spent most of last night
Dragging this lake for the corpses
Of all my past mistakes
Sell me out - the joke's on you
We are salt - you are the wound
Empty another bottle
And let me tear you to pieces
This is me wishing you
Into the worst situations
I'm the kind of kid
That can't let anything go
But you wouldn't know a good thing
If it came up and slit your throat

Your remorse hasn't fallen on deaf ears
Rather ones that just don't care
'Cause I know that you're
In between arms somewhere
Next to heartbeats
Where you shouldn't be asleep
Now I'll teach you a lesson
For keeping secrets from me

Take your taste back
Peel back your skin
Try to forget how it feels inside
You should try
Saying no once in a while
Oh, once in a while
Take your taste back
Peel back your skin
Try to forget how it feels inside
You should try
Saying no once in a while
Oh, once in a while

And did you hear the news?
I could dissect you
And gut you on this stage
Not as eloquent
As I may have imagined
But it will get the job done
You're done
Every line is plotted and designed
To leave you standing
On your bedroom window's ledge
And everyone else that it hits
That it gets to
Is nothing more than
Collateral damage

Take your taste back
Peel back your skin
Try to forget how it feels inside
You should try
Saying no once in a while
Oh, once in a while
Take your taste back
Peel back your skin
Try to forget how it feels inside
You should try
Saying no once in a while
Oh, once in a while
