Heads or Tails

Baby baby when the time comes can you keep it together?
Can you keep those lines we've drawn so clearly wrong?
And baby baby when no ones around can you keep those hands to yourself.
Well flip it up when it all goes down.
Call it heads or tails.
We do this till one of us fails.

And I know that every word burns a hole in your pocket.
I know that every time you reach in,
you're a little bit guilty cause you know you forget.
And I know that every word turns your stomach into knots,
and I will keep them tied for as long as I'd like.

Can you keep me a secret?
Cause a secret is only as sweet as the lips that keep it.
Can you keep me alive long enough
so you know you'll survive this heads or tails?
We do this till one of us fails.

And I know that every word burns a hole in your pocket.
I know that every time you reach in,
you're a little bit guilty cause you know you forget.
And I know that every word turns your stomach into knots,
and I will keep them tied for as long as I'd like.

Can we say, can we throw it away from the top?
And I missed it, tell me what did you say that you know?
Can we say that it was all a waste?
And if you say it, say it to my face cause you know that loving is leaving you.

And I know that every word burns a hole in your pocket.
I know that every time you reach in,
you're a little bit guilty cause you know you forget.
And I know that every word turns your stomach into knots,
and I will keep them tied for as long as I'd like.

And I know that every word burns a hole in your pocket.
I know that every time you reach in,
you're a little bit guilty cause you know you forget.
And I know that every word turns your stomach into knots,
and I will keep them tied for as long as I'd like.
