Go before we both start to say some mean shit
that we can not let go You know it's broke
I am such a train wreck

Getting attention but forgetting lessons I know
Remembering presents and cleaning up messes I don't
These are the things that separate you and me
that's why I'm telling you so:
animal-shaped hedges and white, picket fences unknown

I know alone

Ignoring caresses and putting up defenses I know
Subtle persuation and communication I don't
I broke its wings and tried to teach it to sing
maybe i should have known

Do you want to see how much I can take?
Can't you just leave bad enough alone?
