If The Shoe Fits, Cut The Foot Off

I know you like making out

But there's a time and place for everything

I know you like getting high

But you know what they say about everyday

I know you like picking fights

When defenses are down

In the middle of the night

I know you'd like to get real deep

But you know what they say:

Not a poet if it's only on the page

[Chorus:]

Erase with shrug

What pulse is left

At this point

I venture this guess

I can't remember when it wasn't a mess

So I guess it's time to abandon ship

We went to see the country

All we saw were bars

We went to see America

Let it show us who we are

We didn't get that far

I know your world is upside down

And you find these truths to be disputable

You know I'd like to work things out

But I know what you'll say:

If you love me let me go away

[Chorus]

Erase with shrug

What pulse is left

At this point

I'd venture this guess

I can't remember when it wasn't a mess

So I guess it's time to abandon ship
