Cutting Corners

It's been a long damn year of ups and downs
I won't hold my tongue just count us out
As soon as you go and turn your back
We're gonna come straight up for your neck
Sick of every empty promise
Tired of the lies they're lost and astray
No need for litigation
I won't sign my life away

Caught by the skin of my teeth
I've fought and lost everything
Oh life is what you make of it
Nothing more for nothing less
If this is letting go
I don't need it
You be the client
I'll be the reject
Just to keep my life intact
I'll take the road, you can keep the contract

You're a fake a fraud
In every sense of the word
One up two down
Another bridge you just burned
Used abused and left for dead
Like a wildfire your destruction's spread
Safe to say you're over
Safe to say things gone are never the same
Never seen a man colder
One time for a snake, two times for the grave

Caught by the skin of my teeth
I've fought and lost everything
Oh life is what you make of it
Nothing more for nothing less
If this is letting go
I don't need it
You be the client
I'll be the reject
Just to keep my life intact
I'll take the road, you can keep the contract

This long and winding road
Oh how it takes its toll
Still on the tires roll
We've gone too far, just to let go
We've gone too far now just let go

Caught by the skin of my teeth
I've fought and lost everything
Oh life is what you make of it
Nothing more for nothing less
If this is letting go
I don't need it
You be the client
I'll be the reject
Just to keep my life intact
I'll take the road, you can keep the contract
