Pulling Levers

Pick up all your clothes Pack up all you know Toss away the o-o-old Chase that fool's go-o-old

You're the same little girl that I recognize But someone's been pulling levers behind those eyes

You can stay where you are Or walk back to the start We're a million miles apart We're a million miles apart We're a million miles apart

You've been writing your life like a story Where no nobody's reading You cut off your ties with a switchblade And never said sorry

You can stay where you are Or walk back to the start We're a million miles apart We're a million miles apart We're a million miles apart

This city's way too small for me to have a nemesis And I'm way too small to want to make the best of this Call me too fragile, I'll call you too stupid You don't even know what you're gonna be losing

Sometimes when you're drinking You say what you're thinking So let me go ahead and pour a dozen more Sometimes when I'm thinking I know why you're sinking Too little too late Too little too late Too little too late Too little too late Too little too late Too little too late

You can stay where you are Or walk back to the start We're a million miles apart We're a million miles apart We're a million miles apart
