Magnified And Reduced By Inches Lyrics

blast it you can't outlast it
and if you ever got what you asked for
you'd never be able to have it
run run run run run
I can't run past this
you can only wrench yourself free
if I swallow the abuse you give me
if I suck it up
I'll keep coming back for more
until the glamour is over
and your ghost has found it's way
into my dreams
but none of this is lost on you
the irony I mean?
the bully plays the fool
and I don't know what to do
but seemingly you've an excuse for everything
isn't that how it goes?
how to clean the blood out of the sheets
how to get the stain of you out of me
I know I know I know I'll never know
first time last time. come again.
I'll be right behind
if I aim I promise I won't miss
but if I hit the target do I get my wish?
well if you dive in with both feet first
you have to want to swim
but if your heart's not in it
why put me through it again?
you saved yourself by making me pay
for the mistakes we both have made
I never wanted this to be a contest
and I never wanted to win
it didn't make me laugh the first time
if this is your idea of a joke
I don't want it
if you eat your words i hope we both fucking choke
how to clean the blood out of the sheets
how to get the stain of you out of me
first time. last time. come again.
I'll be right behind I'll be right behind
hope against hope. yes I will. no I won't.
hope against hope against... yes I will. no I won't.
