Cold floors, landlords, knocking knocking should we let him in?
Should we lock the door & throw away the key, What should we hide first? Should we
Throw away the door, throw away the sink, Throw away every last comforting thing
Throw away the beds so no one can tell, This is how we, this is how well
Cut the power off, give me cold cramped rooms, Disconnected phones and leaky roofs
Give it to me in large unpaid bills, This is how we, this is how we will
Spend the rest of our days, Forever and always, this is
This is how we live
This is how we learn from our mistakes, Repeat them over and again
Put them all together that's what we do, With a little curtain separating each room
Argue, bicker, and fight, Everyone plots their escape
But in the end there is nowhere else to go, This is all we have, this is all we know
Noise spilling out from the traffic on the boulevard, Broken glass and hix in the towyard
Out back say, this is a declaration of war, We've heard that before
Cut the power off, give me cold cramped rooms, Disconnected phones and leaky roofs
Give it to me in large unpaid bills, This is how we, this is how we will
Spend the rest of our days, Forever and always, this is
This is how we live
This is how we respond to a crisis, First we steal each others stuff
Then we hide in all four corners of the house, Trying to pass the blame
We form another angry band, Brandon took all the pots and pans
And locked them in his room,
Now, what are we gonna do?
