Cold floors, landlords, knocking knocking should we let him in?

 Should we lock the door & throw away the key, What should we hide first? Should we

Throw away the door, throw away the sink, Throw away every last comforting thing

 Throw away the beds so no one can tell, This is how we, this is how well

Cut the power off, give me cold cramped rooms, Disconnected phones and leaky roofs

 Give it to me in large unpaid bills, This is how we, this is how we will

Spend the rest of our days, Forever and always, this is

This is how we live

 This is how we learn from our mistakes, Repeat them over and again

 Put them all together that's what we do, With a little curtain separating each room

Argue, bicker, and fight, Everyone plots their escape

 But in the end there is nowhere else to go, This is all we have, this is all we know

Noise spilling out from the traffic on the boulevard, Broken glass and hix in the towyard

Out back say, this is a declaration of war, We've heard that before

Cut the power off, give me cold cramped rooms, Disconnected phones and leaky roofs

 Give it to me in large unpaid bills, This is how we, this is how we will

Spend the rest of our days, Forever and always, this is

This is how we live

 This is how we respond to a crisis, First we steal each others stuff

 Then we hide in all four corners of the house, Trying to pass the blame

 We form another angry band, Brandon took all the pots and pans

 And locked them in his room,

Now, what are we gonna do?
