[Intro]
La da da di da, la da da di da, ooh, ooh, ooh
La da da di da, la da da di da, ooh, ooh, oh

[Verse 1]
Some things don't sit right this close to midnight
You're someone else in this light (Oh, oh oh)
Stand in the kitchen attempting to fix this
So I try to listen to you, you, you
But

[Chorus]
You're gonna say something you don't mean
So just before you take it too far
I'll hold my ears say, "La da da di da"
Your empty words made for hurting me
So just before you take it too far
I'll hold my ears say, "La da da di da"

[Post-Chorus]
La da da di da, la da da di da, ooh, ooh, ooh
La da da di da, la da da di da, ooh, ooh, oh
La da da di da, la da da di da, ooh, ooh, ooh
So just before you take it too far
I'll hold my ears say, "La da da di da"
[Verse 2]
It's just like you to take me down with you
Feed off each other's issues (Oh, oh, oh)
We both know there's no use
Talkin' 'bout what I owe you
I want back the old you (You, you, you)
But

[Chorus]
You're gonna say something you don't mean
So just before you take it too far
I'll hold my ears say, "La da da di da"
Your empty words made for hurting me
So just before you take it too far
I'll hold my ears say, "La da da di da"

[Post-Chorus]
La da da di da, la da da di da, ooh, ooh, ooh
La da da di da, la da da di da, ooh, ooh, oh
La da da di da, la da da di da, ooh, ooh, ooh
So just before you take it too far
I'll hold my ears say, "La da da di da"

[Bridge]
Busy doing damage
Instead of repairing you and I
Then you go and take advantage of me
And I can't stand it, every time
[Chorus]
You're gonna say something you don't mean
So just before you take it too far
I'll hold my ears say, "La da da di da"
Your empty words made for hurting me
So just before you take it too far
I'll hold my ears say, "La da da di da"

[Outro]
La da da di da, la da da di da, ooh, ooh, ooh
La da da di da, la da da di da, ooh, ooh, oh
