Call Off The Cops

call off the cops
tell them i drank too much
tell them it's not enough
the way we're in love

just hang up the phone
tell them it's not that bad
cuz they'll never understand
the fights that we have

i think i'm cracking up
the water pressure's too high
the purple welts along my arms
just prove i'm alive
and saw too much sun
so all of my skin got burned
now i can't sleep at night
and all day my stomach hurts

but better me than you
you've got enough to rumble with
fresh blood and tourniquets
old ghosts and skeletons

i just hope we settle this.
