Текст песни: In So Many Words + перевод

This is the absolute last of my promises

I swear to you, I’m finished with this

I guess it started as sick curiosity

But by now it’s just making me sick

I’ve locked the doors of the house

Trading shots with myself

Inventing drinking games to help pass the time

Drink once for inertia

Twice for every broken promise

Three for every protracted goodbye

At this rate, I just might drink myself blind

This is the absolute last of my promises

I swear to you, I’m finished with this

With these lists of suggestions

Of things I could change

To help you stave off your own listlessness

It’s a race to the finish

Take no losses, take no prisoners

You can’t afford to give in this time

Before this cracked and broken canvas

Lay a table of your implements

The bottles and the chemicals inside

To help make things right

I will let go tonight

To you it seems like selfishness, this self-preserving reflex

But honestly, to me this is a conflict of interest

I’m no kind of coward, despite my various flaws

I just know when I can and when I can’t beat the odds

So take all your questions, your fucking meaningless games

You and them can go to Hell, or at least the hell away from me

So take your mixed signals and your infidelities

You see, I’m better off without you

But you were much better off with me

This is a lesson in self-preservation

(The bow is drawn, make from the shaft.)

You wounded an artist

What did you expect?

This is a lesson in self-preservation

(The bow is drawn, make from the shaft.)

You wounded an artist

What did you expect?

What did you expect?
