[Verse 1: Jake]
Catch me leaving in the dead of night
Run, run like an animal holding back the tears so
I get by like a week at a time
But it seems so pitiful, seems like I'm awfully
Scared of the things that I am sometimes
Hide away, you can stay if you feel like you want to
Like the fool with the deck stacked up
Maybe I should say some things that I ought to, now

[Chorus: Jake]
Oh no
No, oh no

[Verse 2: Jake]
Scorpio, we might be the same
You're so good at laughing off things that affect you
Wish I could tap your confidence
Think it's kinda hot how you downplay all
That shit that you got when you gave me your heart
Instead of looking outside, you were looking inside
Can't put away what you left in my bed
While I was looking upwards, you were looking ahead

[Chorus: Jake]
Late nights with the TV on, sandman been away too long
Stay up till the break of dawn, necessary, necessary evil
With the TV on, sandman been away too long
Stay up till the break of dawn, necessary, necessary evil
[Post-Chorus: Jake]
Oh no
No, oh no

[Bridge: Jake]
Stirring the pot with our fate in my hands
It feels so incredible
Wait for the time when it comes back around
It cures like an antidote
That you got when I messed with your heart
Instead of looking outside, you were looking inside
Can't put away what you left in my bed
While I was looking upwards, you were looking back then

[Chorus]
Late nights with the TV on, sandman been away too long
Stay up till the break of dawn, necessary, necessary evil
With the TV on, sandman been away too long
Stay up till the break of dawn, necessary, necessary evil

[Outro]
Necessary, necessary evil
Till the break of dawn
Till the break of dawn
Till the break of dawn
