So is this knife clasped in my hand worth a damn?
'Cause I can't understand why a man
Like you is worth a stab, one and two
We're falling down through the still void of shampoo

'Cause you like the sad battles
You like the sad battles
You like the sad battles
You like the sad battles
You like the sad battles
You like the sad battles
You like the sad battles
You like the sad battles

Show me the colour of the final bruise of this fermented relationship
Because you know it'll all come crashing through when you're consumed by a resentful itch
Tell me how long I can stay holding on like a limp and dented punching bag
Because sometimes I feel like I don't matter when I let you win

Now do I exist to pick and predict?
The conflict, the script that kicks off with a link to a tick
Tock of your own trauma's clock
You're like a bomb: cocked, unlocked, rockets all propped and docked

You like the sad battles
You like the sad battles
You like the sad battles
You like the sad battles
You like the sad battles
You like the sad battles
You like the sad battles
You like the sad battles

Show me the colour of the final bruise of this fermented relationship
Because you know it'll all come crashing through when you're consumed by a resentful itch
Tell me how long I can stay holding on like a limp and dented punching bag
Because sometimes I feel like I don't matter when I let you win

This knife in my hand, no it's not worth a damn
Now I've come to understand why you think you're the man
Though you act like a fool and bring me down with you too
With our faces consumed by black pools of shampoo

So yes, I existed, I picked and predicted
The conflict, the script
Yet it kicked off a link to the tick
Tock, tock, to your botched trauma's clock
Like a bomb: cocked, unlocked, rockets all propped and docked

Concede, I am free, eager for the sweet release
I'm redeemed, superseding any traces interweaved
Disbelieved and demeaned, I was reeling from fatigue
Now you'll see, yes you'll see, who you are without me

Ooh, I cannot lie, I will always wonder why
Why you hide in your mind, yet you're always so surprised
When you find that behind you, people's kindness is disguised
Predefined in your eyes, you're just a child that's resigned

Once, just this once, I will do what I want
I don't care if you grunt when I start to confront
I'm a punch, you're a stunted bunch of corruptions
Like a sponge I am wrung, now I'm done, now I'm done

You like the sad battles, sung like a mad carol
Never win, never win, never
So say your last cavil, hide under flat enamel
Let them in, let them in, let them
You'll become the gravel, the rubble of your castle
Dealigned, dealigned, dea
Behind the cracked apparel, a boy who's weak and fragile
Like a fire, like a fire, like a

You like the sad battles, sung like a mad carol
Never win, never win, never win, never
So say your last cavil, hide under flat enamel
Let them in, let them in, let them
You'll become the gravel, the rubble of your castle
Dealigned, dealigned, dea
Behind the cracked apparel, a boy who's weak and fragile
You like the sad battles, you like the sad battles
