Verse 1:
Not to sound a broken record she said
But for the record I am scared of the things that passed
In the last few minutes
Patience worn like the tires thinned
By the ground ground ground

And I replied with an immeasurable wit
And what would have been a riot if we weren't faced with
What had made itself to be
A truth that kept us tightly wound

Pre-Chorus:
So there we were like paper shapes in 3-D planes
Aware of a depth we couldn't fake
No matter how much we tried to bend or twist
A tragic netting made from tearing out a page
Made to hold against a sea of crashing waves
We just weren't made or cut out for this

Chorus:
We're not cut out for this
We're not cut out for this
We're not cut out for this
We're not cut out for this
We're going down down down

Verse 2:
The bed we made were sentences we laid
And our words were vows that dissipated
Waiting on her punctuation so I could breathe
And put this thought down

And she replied with very casual lines
And lie after lie that she was fine
But we both knew what we got into
And there's no way you could fool us now

Pre-Chorus:
So there we were like paper shapes in 3-D planes
Aware of a depth we couldn't fake
No matter how much we tried to bend or twist
A tragic netting made from tearing out a page
Made to hold against a sea of crashing waves
We just weren't made or cut out for this

Chorus:
We're not cut out for this
We're not cut out for this
We're not cut out for this
We're not cut out for this
We're going down down down
