You better open the door before I take a hammer to the walls around it.
|
I cannot let you inside my cell for fear I'll sink the ship and drag us both down.
|
|
Our hell ends every weekend
|
But it's all I have to believe in.

|
Matt makes his murderous demand: foreign films.
|
I take a stand and it's all uphill from here (at least I hope so).
|
Kate claims she can't depend on me for anything and I agree
|
It's crystal clear.
|
I reach for the bottle and disappear.
|
|
Our hell ends every weekend
|
But it's all I have to believe in.

|
Frank fails to see the humor in my sad attempts at breakdancing
|
in every bar along Lyndale Avenue.
|
Liz likes to liquor up my thoughts from the C.C. Club to the Triple Rock
|
There's no escape from the chorus of people screaming:
|
|
You better open the door before I take a hammer to the walls around it.
|
I cannot let you inside my cell for fear I'll sink the ship and drag us both down.
|
|
Our hell ends every weekend <i>[*]
|
But it's all I have to believe in.
|
|
Our hell ends every weekend
|
But it's all I have to believe in.
|
|
I'll swim backwards <i>[x6]</i>.
|
I'll swim alone the long goodbye.
|
|
You better open the door before I take a hammer to the walls around it.
|
I cannot let you inside my cell for fear i'll sink the ship and drag us both down.
