Alkaline Trio - Minds Like Minefields lyrics

Whoa oh oh, oh oh oh whoa oh oh oh

Once upon a time when we both lost our minds
And our memories destroyed our common sense
And the letters sent suicidal tendencies
Deployed like a parachute
You had a hole in you
As we went tumbling through the sky
The only thing I'd change
Is the fear and rage
And the hell I put you through so sorry

And I can't get up the nerve
To look you in the eyes as I'm leaving
And I can't go on
This same old song and dance
Is murder on your feelings

Whoa oh oh, oh oh oh whoa oh oh oh

I'm at a loss for words as the tables turned
You placed me upon the wheel
In your torture chamber my remains were
Left next to my last meal
Gone without a trace you went off to taste
The fruit of the afterlife as I sit and stir
Nightmares recur haven't slept a wink
In forty days or nights

And I can't get up the nerve
To look you in the eyes as I'm leaving
And I can't go on
This same old song and dance
Is murder on your feelings now and again
Forgotten friends
Crossing my mind like a minefield
Stopping to stare
Asking "do I dare defuse this or disarm my"
"Disarm myself?"

And I can't get up the nerve
To look you in the eyes as I'm leaving
And I can't go on
This same old song and dance
Is murder on your feelings now and again
Forgotten friends
Crossing my mind like a minefield
Stopping to stare
Asking "do I dare defuse this or disarm my"
"Disarm myself?"
