Operate Lyrics

The way you operate, the way you operate is straight to the bone, is straight to the bone.
And everything you say, and everything you say it leaves me alone, it leaves me alone.
The way you compromise, is like pulling out my eyes, my eyes.
And you say that everything I do, it bounces off of you, with everything I say.

The way you operate, the way you operate is straight to the bone, is straight to the bone.
And when I find my eyes, I'll cut you down to size, down to size.
Until then, I'll wander around blind, bumping into signs, and falling on my face.

The way I think you'll take it, so I guess I'm breaking it,
Every time I open my mouth, and I can't live it down.
And I think you know it, so I guess I'm blowing it,
Every time I open my mouth, no I can't live it down.

The way you operate, the way you operate is straight to the bone, is straight to the bone.
And you say that everything I do, it bounces off of you, with everything I say.

The way I think you'll take it, so I guess I'm breaking it,
Every time I open my mouth, and I can't live it down.
And I think you know it, so I guess I'm blowing it,
Every time I open my mouth, no I can't live it down.

The stupid things I'll say under the knife.
Sometimes the words I say don't come out right.
So all the things I wanted you to hear went unsaid, unsaid, went unsaid.

The way I think you'll take it, so I guess I'm breaking it,
Every time I open my mouth, and I can't live it down.
And I think you know it, so I guess I'm blowing it,
Every time I open my mouth, no I can't live it down.
I know that I can't live it down, and I know that I can't live it down.
