Chrome - Intellectual

Only so much that a man can stand to take

Hand in hand the plans we make

Danced around the subject, slammed it on your face

Got up and ran away

These decisions last, hidden in the past

I knew it back when we were kids sitting in the caf

We didn't ask for what was given back

If you gotta run, run like this

If you gotta front, backstroke it

If you gotta blow, if you gotta break

If you gotta make a getaway then shake a leg, escape

If you gotta ride, step on it

If you gotta take a hike, go hitch

If you gotta blow, then you should grow some nuts for your heartache and go

Make no mistake, I'm gonе

But this world's too big for you to take it on

While you wait alone it'll knock you down and racе along

A lot of blame with no one left to place it on

I get it though, all that love and let it go

Can't get comfortable in a rented home

She left a note I read it slow

It hurts, but I don't let it show

If you gotta run, run like this

If you gotta front, backstroke it

If you gotta blow, if you gotta break

If you gotta make a getaway then shake a leg, escape

If you gotta ride, step on it

If you gotta take a hike, go hitch

If you gotta blow, then you should grow some nuts for your heartache and go

Won't you leave me alone

Don't believe in platinum memories of home

When you know

It's just chrome

Yeah I know the way out, when I came out it was beautiful

Now it's cold and grey out

But if I go I'll stay out

Til I fly far enough away to push my seat back and pull my tray out

I'm better off without you

Tossed around, lost and found you

Wanted me to love but I'm not about to

I've forgotten how to

If you gotta run, run like this

If you gotta front, backstroke it

If you gotta blow, if you gotta break

If you gotta make a getaway then shake a leg, escape

If you gotta ride, step on it

If you gotta take a hike, go hitch

If you gotta blow, then you should grow some nuts for your heartache and go

Take both of your chromosomes, bag up your testosterone

And climb your ass off my throne, throne, throne, throne

Just go, you always move snail pace slow

Get going before we're old

I want the chill out my bones, bones, bones

Won't you leave me alone

Don't believe in platinum memories of home

When you know

It's just chrome
