Take a hint
It's razor thin
I got a paper cut
From my favorite gun
Take a hint
Oh baby
I got tangled in
With your angry heart

What a way for my day to start
Before it all came a

I got a bird that whistles
His name was Nikki
And he would bark like a dog
I got dog that walks on two legs
I got two legs but I can't walk
I got a mind that kinda works
At certain times,
Right now it's off
They sound alarms and they pound the walls
And they doubt the cause
And I had enough
Okay
Can't relax, it's bad enough
I gotta down a cup when I'm out to lunch
Right now I'm stuck
In the middle of a little more than I can chew
Bite down and chomp
I got a bird that sings in the morning
I've been told I outta be more like it
I gotta stop talking to myself
One thing I don't know
Why am I like this?

Take a hint
It's razor thin
I got a paper cut
From my favorite gun
Take a hint
Oh baby I
I got tangled in
On your angry heart

Your blade stays razor sharp
The pain is my favorite 

Ugly all over
No idea how
I can't blame ya
I wouldn't love me either
I woke up depressed
Welcome to phase two
One of these days there'll be no more of me
Now, my getaways were right in my hands
Slipped through my fingers before I could've caught 'em
I wanna live a little bit more than I should
It's been getting better since you've been gone
Took long nights
Took all I got
Aw, but I promise the final product's God-sent
I was the object of my own conflict
Somewhere along the line, I just fall in
Aw shit
Stop it
I'm all out of options
My old aching bones are all scared hollow
By the thought that I wont wake up tommorow
And I'm just trying to make sense of all this

Well
I love you, but I never met you
So who are you? I don't know
My bed headed devil
You're ahead of schedule
I never thought you'd show
I love you but I don't express it
'Cause if I'm vulnerable my head 'splodes
I ever mention?
I never get to tell you
Oh well, I guess I won't
You see,
Late at night, it's just me here
If I called it would seem weird
If I fall will you be near?
It's like I finally see clear
Holy smokes
The Pope sold his soul
While I'm in the war-zone, sword to my throat
I keep pokin' holes
Whatever floats your boat
Said, I go overboard and sink like a stone

So take a hint
Or take a hike
I know it all
I don't take advice
Take a hint
Or go take a hike
Yeah I don't know
Said you may be right

Yeah
I got a bird that whistles
His name was Nikki
And he would bark like a dog
I got dog that walks on two legs
I got two legs but I can't walk
I got a bird that sings in the morning
I've been told I outta be more like it
I got a bird that sings in the morning
I got a bird that sings all night
