Balance Lost

Gonna stick it to my boss
Trying to catch a wave
Got my knee blown out
Back in my high school days

Caught in a lie x3
I'm getting too close
To make a sacrifice x3
What I want most

The only way out of this airplane
When it's in flight
The only time I ever loved you
Is when we fight
Your order's up
A meatball sub
I can't forget which side I'm on
The only way out of this window
Is when it's closed

Follow the trail for years
Slipping through the cracks
Catch him when he comes in
But he's not coming back

Caught in a lie x3
I'm getting too close
To make a sacrifice x3
What I want most

The only way out of this airplane
When it's in flight
The only time I ever loved you
Is when we fight
Your order's up
A meatball sub
I can't forget which side I'm on
The only way out of this window
Is when it's closed

I can't help hearing the first line as "gonna stick it to my balls". If you're not going to post your lyrics then I will stick to this interpretation forever. Lovely chorus on this one, it's a sweet resolution after the tension of the verses and the synths and jangling guitar (and shift to falsetto) really work well, as does that descending post-chorus riff. Critiques: I think the bass is a bit loud. And you shouldn't stick things to your balls.
