lyrics

Things are good, we should take a Polaroid;
a memento before the moment's destroyed.
We constantly bicker, these flickering moods,
'til we're hardly making any sense...
Either you love me or you leave me -
don't you leave me on this picket fence.

It's been hard, we've both got our histories,
that haunt these halls, but I ain't bathing in our misery.
So, pour me a drink and don't pour it too weak,
and grab it from the top shelf.
I ain't asking for redemption,
and this ain't no cry for help.

When things are good we take it all for granted.
We turn that wheel back to all our bad habits.
But I don't believe we need love to succeed,
but the least you could do is pretend.
Either you love me or you leave me,
don't you leave me on this picket fence.

Either you love me or you leave me...
don't you leave me.
