Dashboard Confessional - If You Can't Leave It Be lyrics

What you've found sure upsets you

Never saw it coming, did you?

It's easy to be surprised with both your eyes sewn closed

Handled with great precision, another thoughtless execution

You're the subject of this exhibition

A willing cadaver, a willing cadaver

Scalpel, sutured.

Made whole again

These cuts are leaving creases

Trace the scars, fit the pieces

Tell your story, you don't need to say a word.

Call off the cavalry, can't save a wretch like me

Clean this with kerosene

If you can't leave it be might as well make it bleed

Scalpel, sutured

Made whole again

Your wires are frayed, can't fire right

You look better when out of sight

You were not made to stand and fight

There's something better wrong with you

Your wires are frayed, can't fire right

You look better when out of sight

You were not made to fire right

There's something better wrong with you

Your pulse is anemic, you're tired of the fire

You're bruising too easy and falling behind

And no one is waiting for you

And no one is waiting for you

And no one is waiting for you

And no one is waiting for you

For you, for you

Call off your quarantine, can't save the rest from me

Clean this with kerosene

If you can't leave it be might as well make it bleed

Scalpel, Sutured

Made whole again

Your wires are frayed, can't fire right

You look better when out of sight

You were not made to stand and fight

There's something better wrong with you

Your wires are frayed, can't fire right

You look better when out of sight

You were not made to stand and fight

There's something better wrong with you
