"The best way to make it through
with hearts and wrists intact
is to realize
that two out of three ain't bad"
This is in reference to a Meatloaf song "Two outta Three Ain't Bad", as Paradox band said. The chorus in that song says "I want you, I need you, but there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you. But honey don't be sad, two outta three aint bad."
Knowing that about the last line, I think Pete is saying that the best way to make it throug relationships is to know that you will rarely have it all, so take what you have, otherwise you just end up with a broken heart and depressed (slitting your wrists).
