We expected something, something better than before
We expected something more
Do you really think you can just put it in a safe
Behind a painting, lock it up and leave?
Do you really think you can just put it in a safe
Behind a painting, lock it up and leave?
Walk away now and you're gonna start a war
Whatever went away, I'll get it over now
I'll get money, I'll get funny again
Whatever went away, I'll get it over now
I'll get money, I'll get funny again
Walk away now and you're gonna start a war
We expected something, something better than before
We expected something more
You were always weird but I never had to hold you
By the edges, like I do now
You were always weird but I never had to hold you
By the edges, like I do now
Walk away now and you're gonna start a war
Whatever went away, I'll get it over now
I'll get money, I'll get funny again
Whatever went away, I'll get it over now
I'll get money, I'll get funny again
Walk away now and you're gonna start a war
Walk away now and you're gonna start a war
We expected something more
Do you really think you can just put it in a safe
Behind a painting, lock it up and leave?
Do you really think you can just put it in a safe
Behind a painting, lock it up and leave?
Walk away now and you're gonna start a war
Whatever went away, I'll get it over now
I'll get money, I'll get funny again
Whatever went away, I'll get it over now
I'll get money, I'll get funny again
Walk away now and you're gonna start a war
We expected something, something better than before
We expected something more
You were always weird but I never had to hold you
By the edges, like I do now
You were always weird but I never had to hold you
By the edges, like I do now
Walk away now and you're gonna start a war
Whatever went away, I'll get it over now
I'll get money, I'll get funny again
Whatever went away, I'll get it over now
I'll get money, I'll get funny again
Walk away now and you're gonna start a war
Walk away now and you're gonna start a war

Doesn't "walk away now and you're gonna start a war" imply that the speaker is ready to fight to keep the person with him? I would agree with the "goodbye song" theory if the lyrics were "walk away now, OR you're gonna start a war." But it's "and," so the war would be a result of her leaving. Just something I noticed.
