Chainsaw Lyrics by Nick Jonas

Last Year Was Complicated (Deluxe Edition)

2016

[Intro]
I'll take a chainsaw to the sofa
Where I held your body close for so long, so long

[Verse 1]
Walk in the house, lights are off
In the closet by the door, there's your coat
I wasn't thinking of you before
Too many rooms in this house, so I keep going out
What the hell is that about?
We gotta find a way to be okay

[Chorus]
And maybe I'll just take a chainsaw to the sofa
Where I held your body close for so long, so long
I'm gonna break the fucking china
'Cause it's just one more reminder you're gone, you're gone

[Verse 2]
When I get home, TV on
Drink in my glass, better make it strong
Some nights wanna fill this space
With a tight dress and a pretty face
Keep finding things that you left on purpose
Did you plan it? Your timing's perfect
Gotta find a way to be okay

[Chorus]
Maybe I'll just take a chainsaw to the sofa
Where I held your body close for so long, so long
I'm gonna break the fucking china
'Cause it's just one more reminder you're gone, you're gone

[Post-Chorus]
We were building brick by brick
Now it's just a quicksand home, yeah
So I'll take a chainsaw to the sofa
Where I held your body close for so long, so long, ohh

[Bridge]
I could put a sign in the lawn
But it'd mean that I would wanna let you go
And I don't wanna let you go
I could put a sign in the lawn
But it'd mean that I would wanna let you go
And I don't wanna let you go

[Chorus]
I'll take a chainsaw to the sofa
Where I held your body close for so long, so long
I'll burn everything that binds us
Take a lighter to the mattress and run, run

[Post-Chorus]
We were building brick by brick
Now it's just a quicksand home, yeah
So I'll take a chainsaw to the sofa
Where I held your body close for so long, so long
Yeah, so long
