Dashboard Confessional Lyrics
"The Cut And Run Routine"

So, I've seen the truth is
That you've been leaving
Since the day you showed.
Oh well,
I've seen your little cut and run routine
Enough times now to have it memorized.

So there's no surprises
Oh it's sad enough to be a fine mess
But it's shaping up to be a cold and lonely party
For a cold and lonely girl

With the sights set on the big exit
With a chase and a catch and some makeup sex
So it feels a bit less lonely
For a cold and lonely girl

So
I could see the angles you play
And I've been your games
Since the day you showed.
Oh well
I've had you about as much I wanted
Enough times now to have it memorized

So there's no surprises
Oh it's sad enough to be a fine mess
But it's shaping up to be a cold and lonely party
For a cold and lonely girl

With the sights set on the big exit
With a chase and a catch and some makeup sex
So it feels a bit less lonely
For a cold and lonely girl

All I ever wanted for you
Was to stand on your own
All I ever wanted for you
Was to stand on your own

So there's no surprise
Its so sad enough to be a fine mess
But its shaping up to be a cold and lonely party
For a cold and lonely girl

With the sights set on the big exit
With a chase and a catch and some makeup sex
So it feels a bit less lonely
For a cold and lonely girl
So it feels a bit less lonely
For a cold and lonely girl
So it feels a bit less lonely
For a cold and lonely girl
Like you
