Like a ton of bricks it hits
Before she finishes her sentence
As the predicate predicts
A swift ending to her presence

I could see it coming form a mile away
At six hundred miles an hour
A surprise attack
A tora tora kamikaze no looking back
A tactic of considerable power

It doesn't matter now
What I should have done then
My heart was in the right place
At the wrong time again

It doesn't matter now
What I should have done then
My heart was in the right place
At the wrong time again

In close to half a second
My composure was lost
And I found my modesty
"Everything not in the dumpster was
otherwise tossed",
her voice lacking in sincerity

It doesn't matter now
What I should have done then
My heart was in the right place
At the wrong time again

It doesn't matter now
What I should have done then
My heart was in the right place
At the wrong time again

It's you plus me devided by
inadequacy times my denial
(A phone call is made at midnight wont let her fall asleep)
minus three words that were thrown around
(The ringer's turned off but she can hear the answering machine)
And around and awhycantchoo justsuhsuh

If you want to get away
You'll have to go THROUGH ME
Or walk over my deady body and you JUST MAY
The ship is sinking I'm the captain
There's no ESCAPE

If you want to get away
You'll have to go throught me.
