I would swallow my pride, I would choke on the rinds
But the lack thereof would leave me empty inside
Swallow my doubt, turn it inside out
Find nothing but faith in nothingWant to put my tender heart in a blender
Watch it spin 'round to a beautiful oblivion
Rendezvous, then I'm through with youI burn, burn like a wicker cabinet, chalk white and, oh-so frail
I see our time has gotten stale
The tick-tock of the clock is painful, all sane and logical
I want to tear it off the wallI hear words in clips and phrases, I think sick like ginger ale
My stomach turns and I exhaleI would swallow my pride, I would choke on the rinds
But the lack thereof would leave me empty inside
I would swallow my doubt, turn it inside out
Find nothing but faith in nothingWant to put my tender heart in a blender
Watch it spin 'round to a beautiful oblivion
Rendezvous, then I'm through with youSoCal is where my mind states, but it's not my state of mind
I'm not as ugly, sad as you
Or am I origami? Folded up and just pretend
Demented as the motives in your headI would swallow my pride, I would choke on the rinds
But the lack thereof would leave me empty inside
I would swallow my doubt, turn it inside out
Find nothing but faith in nothingWant to put my tender heart in a blender
Watch it spin around to a beautiful oblivion
Rendezvous, then I'm through with youI alone am the one you don't know you need
Take heed, feed your ego
Make me blind when your eyes close
Sink when you get close, tie me to the bedpostI alone am the one you don't know you need
You don't know you need me
Make me blind when your eyes close
Tie me to the bed postI would swallow my pride, I would choke on the rinds
But the lack thereof would leave me empty inside
Swallow my doubt, turn it inside out
Find nothing but faith in nothingWant to put my tender heart in a blender
Watch it spin around to a beautiful oblivion
Rendezvous, then I'm through
Now I'm through with youThrough with you
Rendezvous then I'm through with you
