[Verse 1] Let me take this awkward saw Run it against your thighs Cut some flesh away I'll carry this piece of you with me 'Cause all I can say tonight is, "I hate you." But it would be all right If we could see each other sometime If I could somehow make you mine
[Verse 2] And if not, I'll take my spoons Dig out your blue eyes Swallow them down to my colon They're gonna burn like hell tonight 'Cause you're beautiful Just not on the inside Light comes from within And your beaming eyes don't seem so bright
[Verse 3] Boardwalks and breaking waves Made our Saturdays I'd buy you lemonade right now If you were here Then I'd throw it in your face And I'd listen to you cry Remember how I miss Our nights underneath ocean skies
[Outro] [x4] You and I are like when fire And the ocean floor collide
