Lyrics

The Strikes

you've got this laid out all wrong
you've turned your back and left me high and dry
and i am not so ready, willing anymore

my problem's reaching its own end
my patience is walking out with you
the sunset, our movie
two gun shots, two dead men

try not to choke on your words
try not to stumble down the stairs
a swift hit backhand recourse, clutching my own lifeline by my side

don't forget this
based on instinct
trial and error

my problem's reaching it's own end
my patience is walking out with you
the sunset, our movie
two gun shots, two dead men

pay on credit and you'll get this:
a license, a waiver. the damage is more than you'll pay
got the word out on your error:
your mistake, my problem. the final words and rules for this game have changed

don't forget this
based on instinct
trial and error
we bridge the upswing
don't forget this
based on instinct
trial and error

try not to choke on your words
