So here we are
Stuck in a mess
We're at the edge
Well, more or less

It's not the way
I wanted it
But here we are
Sinking in shit

So make your choice
I'm not afraid
'Cause all we've got
Is a Band-Aid

(Chorus)
Rip it off
Don't do it slow
It’s easier
With one quick blow
Rip it off
You need to know
I wanted you
Right from the go


When we started out
We had a spark
I felt your hooks
Deep in my heart

It all made sense
And life was good
I knew exactly
Just where I stood

The future was
For us to take
So what the hell
Was our mistake?

(Chorus)
Rip it off
Don't do it slow
It’s easier
With one quick blow
Rip it off
You need to know
I wanted you
Right from the go


So here we are
Stuck in a mess
We're at the edge
Well, more or less

It's not the way
I wanted it
But here we are
Sinking in shit

So make your choice
I'm not afraid
'Cause all we've got
Is a Band-Aid

(Chorus)
Rip it off
Don't do it slow
It’s easier
With one quick blow
Rip it off
You need to know
I wanted you
Right from the go


When we started out
We had a spark
I felt your hooks
Deep in my heart

It all made sense
And life was good
I knew exactly
Just where I stood

The future was
For us to take
So what the hell
Was our mistake?

(Chorus)
Rip it off
Don't do it slow
It’s easier
With one quick blow
Rip it off
You need to know
I wanted you
Right from the go
