Lyrics

Among distant family
Bloodlines remain
You'll never shed your "win fast" legacy
But I attempt to steer away
From bleak conclusions
Once again, i'm soft and I lose this way

And all the smoke is gone
And you know what's in the box
And you'll throw down your trump card-
"You can trust me" catch-22
But with all the depth of a teardrop
Scrub tub and a washboard-
Think it's time to get clean

Don't say such permanent things
When you know that you won't always mean them
Big lie
Does it feel okay that your words are a sock in my eye?
And your permanent things
Don't say such permanent things

Check off your list of things to do-
Gotta keep the score way ahead
Gotta practice your victory dance
And my harsh feelings
Are just a few of millions
Strike up the grill and burn all of your enemies

And as the curtains rise
You'll show me what's in the box
But in ten to twenty seconds
Your capricious side will have shown
And you know it won't even matter

Don't say such permanent things
When you know that you won't always mean them
Big lie
Do you feel okay
With deceit you can always get by?
And your permanent things
Don't say such permanent things

Climbing high and looking down
I didn't learn a thing
But how to hold my breath
***And you with the upper hand now
You afford to never look back and
There you go again
How can I fit all of this in a recycling bin?

***Don't say such permanent things
When you know that you won't always mean them
Big lie
Does it feel okay that your words are a sock in my eye?
And your permanent things
Don't say such permanent things
