I’ve spent so long
just picking up the pieces
you left me in

I’ve been patching
I’ve been mending
but I can’t recall
where I began

Before you got your hands on me
before you swore
you’d never leave
now my world is crumbling down
and you are nowhere to be found

You’re so logically illogical
think I knew that from the start
I think I’ve seen this movie
and I don’t wanna play this part

‘Cause I know how this one goes
when I’m not the star of the show
you’re just gonna
write me out
or kill me off
and let the credits roll

So I’m bailing on this boat
I’m pulling the ripcord
I’m gonna lay my weapon down
and walk right out the door

I just will not spend my life
fighting like
I’ve got something to lose
when the only time I go to battle
I’m toe to toe with you

There’re some flaws to my logic
but there’s some logic to my flaws
you broke me down
so I’ll rebuild my walls
up twice as tall

And I know I’ll get the blame
cause you’re worried about your name
I’m so sick of putting out the fire
while you’re fanning on the flames

I’m bailing on this boat
I’m pulling the ripcord
I’m gonna lay my weapon down
and walk back on into the world

I just will not spend my life
fighting like
I’ve got something to lose
when the only time that I throw down
I’m in the ring with you

I don’t care bout what you want
I don’t care about what you need
cause I know that none of that
has anything left to do with me

I spent too much of my life
thinking that I was fighting for us
now my eyes are open wide
I was only fighting you

So I’m baling on this boat
I’m pulling the ripcord
ooh, I’d tuck and roll
right out of this
if it were a car
rolling down I-4

I just will not spend my life
fighting like
I’ve got something to lose
when the only time I go to battle
I’m toe to toe with you
