Cast-Iron Silhouette - Cookie Crumbs And Papercuts текст песни

A round of Russian roulette
Played with fortune cookies
Break it open; see what you get
Does it count if I put it back
And pick a new one in its place?
I like this one much better
It's more of what I want to hear
Reread it again over another drink

I can't help but think I've wasted
All of my time here on this
And all I've got to show
Are cookie crumbs and paper cuts
I can't help but think I'm wasted
To spend all this time here
And all that I can show
Are cookie crumbs and paper cuts

So I convince myself of
The truth behind my fortune
You know a cookie never lies
It's one of a few good friends
Tells me that soon I'll be better off
And that I'll forget about you
But for now I'll sit and pout
In a Chinese restaurant downtown

I can't believe that I've wasted
All my time pining over you
Behind my defensive line of bottles
Cookie crumbs and paper cuts
I can't believe how wasted I am
I've spent hours inside this place
Fumbling over papers in my hands
Covered with cookie crumbs and paper cuts

I can't help but think I'm wasted
Putting my trust into a cookie
I don't like what this one says
Disregard it like all the rest
Living my life at the whim of cookies
It's fortune cookie Russian roulette
But if I lose I won't wind up dead
Just goes in the bottle with the rest
