Lyrics

The chords we play Ways left to communicate These roads are paved with plans we've made And your headboard's never felt so safe Well they'll reach our graves Where your friends and I will kill the lights And hide, oh, what a nice suprise Don't, don't tell me when its coming, no Don't, don't I just want to see if for myself Don't breathe, don't make a sound 'Cause the song won't stop till the tape runs out When melody has nothing to hold I'll be the last sound that you hear As your eyes close And these chords remain We'll use them to exploit the friends We've since forgot, those friends we've lost You all know just who you are 'Cause I've since made graves But I'm too scared to etch the names For fear that I'm the one who's changed Don't, don't tell me when its coming, no Don't, don't I just want to see if for myself Don't breathe, don't make a sound 'Cause the song won't stop till the tape runs out When melody has nothing to hold I'll be the last sound that you hear As your eyes close The thought of death It scares me to death And I don't know why I don't know It's just too much to never wake up Don't, don't tell me when its coming, no Don't, don't I just want to see if for myself Don't breathe, don't make a sound 'Cause the song won't stop till the tape runs out When melody has nothing to hold I'll be the last sound that you hear As your eyes close When melody has nothing to hold I'll be the last sound that you hear As your eyes close
