Cast Off
I guess it's terrible
But it don't feel so bad
I abide and I may hold a key
To being gratefully glad
You smile in my face
(In my waiting)
But all the time you want to hit replace
I've been a long way around
Here's my back for stabbing
Won't wait it up
I won't weigh you down
Won't tear it up,
I will stand down
I won't taint it up
I will stand down
Will you pass me off
I'll be, I'll be your cast-off
Be your discarded toy
I'll be, I'll be your cast-off
Your maybe, sometime choice
Self-loathing never felt so good
And so it should
I'll be your cast-off
I'll be your discarded toy
Be your rejection foil
Won't wait it up
I won't weigh you down
I won't tear it up,
I will stand down
I won't taint it up
I will stand down
When you pass me off
I'll be, I'll be your cast-off
Be your discarded toy
I'll be, I'll be your cast-off
Be your maybe, sometime choice
Be your rejection foil
I kinda ain't shit
But I embrace it
I can be okay
I'll take what I can get
And like it, and like it well
I'll be your cast-off
Be your discarded toy, discarded toy
Discarded chew toy
Smile in my face
And all the time
You want to take my place
Here's my back for stabbing
But it don't feel so bad
I abide and I may hold a key
To being gratefully glad
You smile in my face
(In my waiting)
But all the time you want to hit replace
I've been a long way around
Here's my back for stabbing
Won't wait it up
I won't weigh you down
Won't tear it up,
I will stand down
I won't taint it up
I will stand down
Will you pass me off
I'll be, I'll be your cast-off
Be your discarded toy
I'll be, I'll be your cast-off
Your maybe, sometime choice
Self-loathing never felt so good
And so it should
I'll be your cast-off
I'll be your discarded toy
Be your rejection foil
Won't wait it up
I won't weigh you down
I won't tear it up,
I will stand down
I won't taint it up
I will stand down
When you pass me off
I'll be, I'll be your cast-off
Be your discarded toy
I'll be, I'll be your cast-off
Be your maybe, sometime choice
Be your rejection foil
I kinda ain't shit
But I embrace it
I can be okay
I'll take what I can get
And like it, and like it well
I'll be your cast-off
Be your discarded toy, discarded toy
Discarded chew toy
Smile in my face
And all the time
You want to take my place
Here's my back for stabbing
