Stakes, you stack them so high*
I collect flakes and I watch them fly
Why don't you take it and use it for good?
Why don't you take what it is that you have
And put it where I think you should?
Offer me shelter, offer me a home
Where we can sit and sit and sit
And never be alone
Why don't you take it and use it for good?
Why don't you take what it is that you have
And put it where I think you should?
Use it for good if you know that you can
Use it for good if you know that you can
Pick up the stones, they are safe in your hands
Before we both fall with nowhere to land
[2x:]
Breaks, we both have survived
I have made you scared with all my goodbyes
I'm gonna take it and use it for good
I'm gonna take what I have and put it
Exactly where you think I should
Let's get a sublet with a dog and a cat
Where we can sit and sit and sit
And drive each other mad
Why don't you take it and use it for good?
Why don't you take what it is that you have
And put it where I think you should?
