[Intro]

Fuck you, get pumped!

[Verse 1]

I'm looking out for falling knives and bricks

Because 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 ice pick in my brain

Keeping the door locked might keep you away

But I don't know how it's gonna keep me sane

When I have pills just to make it to the end of the day

So my bed's got a handgun underneath

I've got a suicide pill in between my teeth

I've got a six-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:

Two, three, four, no, no, oh, don't break down the door

[Chorus]

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

And why can't we smooth out the creases?

I don't wanna go to bed and never wake up now

[Verse 2]

I'm looking out for 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

[Chorus]

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?

And why can't we smooth out the creases?

I don't want to go to bed and never wake up now

[Bridge]

You 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

And it's not a matter of "holier-than-thou"

'Cause 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

Fuck

[Chorus]

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

And why can't we smooth out the creases?

I don't want to go to bed and never wake up now
