Pressure Cracks

The pressure cracks in that old wooden floor still creaking
Ever so softly, and just barely off-key
It lets me know that you've just got back from your adjustment leave
And you can feel it in the air
Something just died and came back to play fair

Oh, play fair

Or we could just walk away
Or save it for another day
And if this feeling grows at all
We can just stand back and watch the castle fall

And have you ever tried to see
What beats so strong inside of me
And if so, then have you ever cared?
Or decided with a pitiful stare, singing

Throw it away, throw it away!
Make your move and then make my day
Throw it away, throw it away!
This love has finally burned itself, betrayed

Oh, if only we could do it again
And you can have your fun with your so-called friends
And I'd forget that we'd ever kissed
Might as well use that knife in my back on my wrists
See, I watch you look at me
All dressed up, the girl's going out to party
And I might not have a home
But I had a heart until you ripped it out and left me alone, saying

Throw it away, throw it away!
Make your move and then make my day
Throw it away, throw it away!
This love has finally burned itself, betrayed

Throw it away, throw it away!
Make your move and then make my day
Throw it away, throw it away!
This love has finally burned itself, betrayed
