Fixated

Take it or leave it

The pit of your stomach

It's a lesson that you're ready to learn

Tear it to pieces

Then tape it together

And throw it on the fire to burn

Would you believe it?

A porcelain statue to smash on the wall

and break to bits

Said it was coming

but then it was nothing

and over it all I pitched a fit

nothing is sending

and nothing receiving

It's a message that you never return

Wish I was sure

but it's always whatever

And no one ever gathers the nerve

Would you believe it

A porcelain statue to smash on the wall

and break to bits

Such a relief like a kick in the stomach

in telling me all of this is fixed

No I wouldn't trade you for the world

No I could betray you with a word

So loud

when the arms are reaching out

So hide

So hide me somewhere safe

Tear it to pieces and tape it together

Would you believe me

if all I ever did was make a fist

Said it was coming

and then it was nothing

and now it ends like this

nothing is sending

and nothing receiving

a message you'll never return

Wish I was sure

but it's always whatever

and now you've got the nerve

No I would betray you with a word
