lyrics

You look so sad
stricken down to the darkest gray—
hell ain’t half bad, I swear

First she purrs then she raves
round and round every single day
Wants a ring, wants to fight, right now
Says you suck, says you win, calls you satan
Says you light up her life, but not which one

You look burned out
charred on down to the lowest grade—
bad love fallout, I swear

First he lies then he prays
up and down every single day
wants a maid not a wife, and how
Calls you queen, rubs your feet, says you’re broken
Says you’re the light of his life, yeah right

Best get off, best high tail
hit the road cuz the system’s failed
or bear down, and shut your mouth, and tell her:

You’re for me, I’m for you
one for me, two for you
Why on earth do I lie to you?
Hell for me, hell for you

Or walk out, and let go, pack your clothes
hit the road cuz the system’s failed
or bear down, lock and load, and tell him:
You don’t know how much you mean to me
