"Chew Nails" lyrics

I see everybody falling in love
Nobody really wants to make friends
Act like they flew here on the wing of a dove
Like they were born without original sin
I say, "No, no."

Yeah, they want to talk about original thought
Yeah
And they won't say where they've been
They think it's okay to be alone
Uh-huh
I think you really want to be just like them
Yeah

It's in a letter that you already wrote
Yes, it's in a letter that you waited to send

Oh, I've given you up like a spare dime
It's a little too late now to pay mind
You keep pushing it down, it don't feel right
When you get enough of this play fight
You see nothing will hit you like hindsight
You've been pushing me down but I'm alright

Oh, I've given enough of my time
So, I'm not gonna cry
For you

Chew nails, sign your check
I'm standing up with the hair on your neck
See I've been listening to your words
And I can hear your girl

As she sings along to my elegant prayers
Yeah
We hear you stumble down the stairs
She sings, "I don't want to be alone. Oh, no"
I know I can't keep playing pretend
With him

It's in a letter that she already wrote
It's in a letter that she's waiting to send

Oh, I've given you up like a spare dime
It's a little too late now to pay mind
You keep pushing it down, it don't feel right
When you get enough of this play fight
You see nothing will hit you like hindsight
You keep pushing me down but I'm alright

I've given enough of my time
So, I'm not gonna cry for you
