CHOOSING SIDES

Should she wear a dress to her execution
Who is she trying to impress
They'll put me in a tie when they put me in the ground
But I think that's mainly for the guests

The signs say stop but we still go
We're in love with disappointment
Static is the new silence
Waiting on these drugs to change us

Wave goodbye as we're looking to the sky
We all know your name around here
You gave it a real good try
But now you got nothing left to fear

Why don't we just talk this over
No one here is getting out alive
Why don't we just talk this over
Seems so dumb down the barrel of a gun
That everyone is choosing sides

What I say with words is never what I'm thinking
The truth clams up downstream
Not everything that happens is important
The future was sold off cheap

Closer to zero than infinity
I have a date with midnight
I no longer make plans for tomorrow
Now all I have is hindsight

Wave goodbye as we're looking to the sky
We all know your name around here
You gave it a real good try
But now you got nothing left to fear

Why don't we just talk this over
No one here is getting out alive
Why don't we just talk this over
Seems so dumb down the barrel of a gun
That everyone is choosing sides

I wonder why we aren't more scared
While everyone is running out of air
I wonder why we aren't more scared
I guess we think we're never going to get there

Why don't we just talk this over
No one here is getting out alive
Why don't we just talk this over
Seems so dumb down the barrel of a gun
That everyone is choosing sides

Peppermints and purple clover
Accidents and late Octobers
Medicines and crossing over
Hangovers and never closure
Here it comes your last makeover
Look at them their finally sober
Barely keeping my composure
It has been an honor to know ya
