Lyrics

Out of the box, out of the kitchen
Out of the world she's grown so fearful of, so fearful of

I don't ever want to see you again [3x]
I don't ever want to see you again my friend, this is the end

Out of the house, she grabs the keys, runs for the hills
And doesn't leave a letter, that way the impact would be much better
Away from the man that she's grown so fearful of, so fearful of

I don't ever want to see you again [4x]

Why,oh why you wear sunglasses in the home
When the sun went down about an hour ago ?
Why, oh why you wear sunglasses in the home
When the sun went down about an hour ago ?
Life should not be that way

Always up or down, never down and out
You dream of demons while you sleep
That make you stutter when you speak
Always up or down, never down and out
Dream of demons while you sleep
That make you stutter when you speak
Speak now or forever hold your peace in pieces

Now that I'm grown I've seen marriages fall to pieces
Now that I'm grown I've seen friendships fall to pieces
Weekend warriors and our best friends
The writers weren't kidding about how all good things must end
Then again somethings, then again somethings are far too good
Somethings are far too good, to go when you let go

Always up or down, never down and out
Dream of demons while you sleep
They'll make you stutter when you speak
Always up or down, never down and out
Dream of demons while you sleep
They'll make you stutter when you speak
Speak now or forever hold your peace..

We won't forget tony or johnny oh, oh
No matter how they miss us they still wish us the best on the road
Garrett took a plane to paris, france
Now he's cooking up entrees for the pretty, pretty french girls
Bookends, blue and clarity, to the wall and grace
Darkside, wish, and a toast to late figure eights

Weekend warriors and our best friends
The writers weren't kidding but the good things will live in our hearts

Always up or down, never down and out
Dream of demons while you sleep
That make you stutter when you speak
Always up or down, never down and out
Dream of demons while you sleep, (never down and out)
That make you stutter when you speak
Always up or down, never down and out
Dream of demons while you sleep, (never down and out)
That make you stutter when you speak
Always up or down, never down and out
Dream of demons while you sleep
They'll make you stutter when you speak
Speak now or forever hold your peace in pieces
