Such an old feeling's coming over me
Such an unwelcome type of disability
Stripped down my defenses so scantily
At a time when everybody's armed with lack of sensitivity
I came here to run away from my past
But I'd like to see if she's still capable of suffering
Maybe it would kill me if her reasons for revenge were not so asinine
I need a counter attack, 'cause right now I'm only hovering
Let's make a pact and never turn back
I think you've got the tools for the mission
We've all got battles to fight, what does it take to build a war machine?
But don't try to batter down my
Defenses if you're on my team
Don't tell me that you love me more than she did
Don't try to touch what's pounding in my chest
I'll give you something to satisfy
And then we'll get some rest
Maybe I'm cursed with the gift of being observant
Some call it a self-destructive kind of power
Snapchat is the only informant, I can tell whenever she's with him
'Cause I've memorized the interior of his car
If I could go back home for a day
I'd wash away this rigmarole like the grease off a fork
Why are my rivals never in the frame? She accosts me with omission, something's rotten in the state of New York
Let's make a pact and never turn back
I think you've got the tools for the mission
We've all got battles to fight, what does it take to build a war machine?
But don't try to batter down my
Defenses if you're on my team
And every man that she woos makes just another mess
I'm hiding far away while those gorillas fight to death
Rule 1 for surviving: Never blow up your spot, just let the little bombshell tick tock
You should see how I pace this hotel room in just my underwear, making a case against the loneliness continuum
If I'm just a few inches away from a spare tire, am I really cruising down
The road to equilibrium?
Let's make a pact and never turn back
I think you've got the tools for the mission
We've all got battles to fight, what does it take to build a war machine?
But don't try to batter down my
Defenses if you're on my team
