[Chorus 1]
Hold me, I'm just trying to be good
It's all talking, gotta stutter my way out of here
Hold me, don't wanna be misunderstood
It's so noisy, gotta shut it, gotta turn it off
Gotta shut it, turn it off

[Verse 1]
I don't want problems
I promise I'm gonna do it right, sir
I'm not a lost case
I'm just a poor kid in a wealthy town, sir
Got a short term memory
Got no interest in the past
Got a phantom ache
Where I used to have a heart

[Pre-Chorus]
Time ticking, 1, 2, 3
Clicking, I don't need a countdown to know it's a long run
I'm peaking, 1, 2, 3

[Chorus 2]
So, hold me, I'm just trying to be good
It's all talking, gotta stutter my way out of here
Hold me, don't wanna be misunderstood
It's so noisy, gotta shut it, got to turn it off
Gotta shut it, turn it off
[Verse 2]
I thought I did all the dids
Filled in the paperwork, sir
Talking 'bout these walls again
First you hate 'em, then get used
Now I can't live without 'em, sir
But I've opened the doors
Don't underlook my halfway home
Check out the sofa, sir, sir
Check out the window, sir

[Pre-Chorus]
Time ticking, 1, 2, 3
Clicking, I don't need a countdown to know it's a long run
I'm peaking, 1, 2, 3

[Chorus 3]
Hold me, I'm just trying to be good
It's all talking, gotta stutter my way out of here
Hold me, don't wanna be misunderstood
It's so noisy, gotta shut it, got to turn it off
Gotta turn it offGotta shut it, turn it off
Gotta shut it, turn it off
Gotta shut it, turn it off
Got it, got to turn it off
Gotta shut it, turn it off
Gotta shut it, turn it off
Gotta shut it, turn it off
Got it, got to turn it off
Gotta shut it, turn it off
Gotta shut it, turn it off
Gotta shut it, turn it off
Got it, got to turn it off
Gotta shut it, turn it off
Gotta shut it, turn it off
Gotta shut it, turn it off 






Hold me
I'm just trying to be good
It's all talking
Gotta stutter my way out of here
Hold me
Don't wanna be misunderstood
It's so noisy
Gotta shut it, got to turn it off
Gotta shut it, turn it off
