Salutations

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Salutations, to whom it may concern The litter box has overflowed, the frozen dinner burned Oh, we're runnin' low on wine, my man, could you please swing by the store? My TV's just reality and I can't watch no more [Verse 2] There's a shining diamond somewhere where a kid is strikin' out His dad is in the dugout, he's foamin' at the mouth A stomach's turnin' sour inside of a disappointed scout Yeah, he thought he'd found the real deal, but now he's got his doubts [Chorus] So it's over before it began But I could nurse you in the triage I could stick you with some pins But it's hopeless, these rules make no sense First they say we can't be lovers And now they say we can't be friends [Verse 3] Ruminations, this medicine don't work Had that same thought ten thousand times, it's only gettin' worse Swore off temptation but what if it's what I really wanna do? But how could I apologize for tellin' you the truth? [Verse 4] There's a burnt out light bulb above my head that's stolen my ideas There's a yearbook on the book shelf that can't explain the years Well, I never should have signed it but you know summer's comin' soon When I almost drowned, you gave me mouth to mouth beside your neighbor's pool [Chorus] It was over before it began You could've left me in the water But you made me live again And I'm sorry I can't pay you back I wanna hold you till the world dissolves But we just can't get attached
