Brent Walsh
Cutting Room Floor
[Verse 1]
If hell broke out in the White House
How long would it take for word to carry here?
Would it stay hush-hush 'til the weather changed
'Til the sun warmed the snow and fears?
Well, I would wanna know, I would wanna know
And it's strange to me that you could barely care
You say, "Like this stolen ground, no one's golden now
We're all made of bronze and steel"
[Chorus]
Why don't you leave, just leave?
You make a horrible point, with your eyes looking low
So leave, just leave
You're on the cutting board, the cutting board
Of the cutting room floor
[Verse 2]
You're gonna wake to a whole different scene
All your pretty lights and neon signs replaced with green
And as you curse the river bed that you throw your compass in
There's comfort 'round the bend
But this house is filled with crooks and liars
We regret to inform you there's no love here for you
(I know you're coming with the worst intentions, bring the flood)
So take your hooks and pliers
We regret to inform you, you're the lowest form
[Chorus]
So leave, just leave
You make a horrible point with your eyes looking low
So leave, just leave
You're on the cutting board, the cutting board
Of the cutting room floor
[Bridge]
You've got this crazy notion
You've ripped this out by the seams
You can't even fathom how with every word you try to say
You dig yourself a hole you can't escape
And that's a little bit more
Than what you came here for
Isn't it funny how little respect you get
When you burn the world for a paycheck?
[Chorus]
Leave, just leave
You make a horrible point with your eyes looking low
So leave, just leave
You're on the cutting board, the cutting board
Of the cutting room floor
[Outro]
(Cutting room floor, cutting room floor)
