[Verse 1: Phoebe Bridgers]
Playin' "Would you rather"
When it comes to fire
You always say that you'd prefer to drown
You were still in the ambulance
When the cop suggested you're the one
Who tried to burn it down

[Chorus: Phoebe Bridgers, Conor Oberst, Both]
Come to find out
I'm a can on a string, you're on the end
We found our way out
Of the suicide pact of our family and friends
In the background, I'll be waiting

[Verse 2: Phoebe Bridgers]
We have the same face
I laid awake as someone shoved you up against a wall
Quarantined in a bad dream
He's half the man and you're twice as tall

[Chorus: Phoebe Bridgers, Conor Oberst, Both]
Come to find out
I'm a can on a string, you're on the end
We found our way out
Of the suicide pact of our family and friends
In the background, I'll be waiting
[Bridge: Phoebe Bridgers & Conor Oberst]
Next time I see you, you'll show me
A hundred different ways to say the same things

[Chorus: Phoebe Bridgers, Conor Oberst, Both]
Come to find out
I'm a can on a string, you're on the end
We found our way out
Of the suicide pact of our family and friends
And when you touch down, I'll be waving
