Tongue is sharp
Got an ax to grind
Girls go wrong, men go right after them
I don´t win and it´s a compromise
You´ll be the loser that pays the dividend

Far from you you´ll find me
Such an easy target and a tragedy
You´re just a shiver looking for a spine
You can have your way, but you can´t have mine

If I had one wish you´d go away
I haven´t snapped yet, but I´m on the brink of it
And I´m not as dumb as the look on your face
You´ll never be half the man your mama is

Overloaded by the way you talk
A hairpin trigger that I can´t stop
Empty words taking up my time
And you can have your way
But you can´t have mine

´Cause every shot baby it feels like a resurrection
I´m looking for affection at the bottom of a bottle again
You show up and it starts another chain reaction
Oh but I can´t tell if it´s you or the drink
It´s too hard to know
´Cause it hurts to think

Far from you you´ll find me
Such an easy target and a casualty
You´re just a shiver looking for a spine
You can have your way, but you can´t have mine

´Cause every shot baby it feels like a resurrection
I´m looking for affection at the bottom of a bottle again
You show up and it starts another chain reaction
Oh but I can´t tell if it´s you or the drink
It´s too hard to know
´Cause it hurts to think
Yeah it hurts to think
