[Verse 1: Madeleine Hyland]
In the back of a cab
Like a puppet with no strings
Untangling my headphones 'cause sometimes they're the only thing
That keeps my head in place
That keeps my head in place

[Verse 2: Joey Batey]
Arriving at the door
I hope to god I'm not the first
My heart is tearing pages from that funny story I rehearsed
And I know I won't be long
'Cause I know I don't belong

[Verse 3: Madeleine Hyland]
'Cause though my jokes are my armour
And my kindness is my sword
The party swirls around me in a dress I can't afford
And I do my best to breathe
But they're stealing all the air

[Verse 4: Joey Batey, Joey Batey & Madeleine Hyland]
And the hum from thе fridge'll
Sing me soft little vigils
As all my stеps too far keep saying "This is who you are"
I should go home
I'm not lonely, I just like being on my own
[Chorus: Joey Batey & Madeleine Hyland]
And I'll sing silence
And ask my glass of wine for guidance
I might not make it tonight
And I'll speak with my eyes
You'll think I'm weird, one sympathises
I might not make it tonight

[Post-Chorus: Joey Batey & Madeleine Hyland]
Because I don't find this easy like you
Gonna go home and show my cat some memes
'Cause he's awesome
Like me
Like me

[Verse 5: Joey Batey, Joey Batey & Madeleine Hyland]
Now I'm lying on a bed full of coats
Trying desperately to cope
When you open up the door, say something stupid like
"You're lying on some coats"
I say I know
It's just sometimes nice to feel what it's like to be in someone else's coat

[Verse 6: Joey Batey, Joey Batey & Madeleine Hyland]
And we're bursting at the seams
'Cause the noise is crushing us
We think it's so much worse than it seems
But that voice inside is rushing us
And in a moment of total rapture
And with every strength I have
I ask if you play D&D
And your face lights up like you've woken up
From this endless fucking nightmare of pretending this is you
This is us, this is me and this how we're meant to be
But your smile tells me I'm safe
And that voice unspoken's heard
'Cause if God make us all in his image
Then God's a fucking nerd
[Chorus: Joey Batey & Madeleine Hyland]
And I'll sing silence
And ask my glass of wine for guidance
I might not make it tonight
And I'll speak with my eyes
You'll think I'm neat, I'm not surprised
That I might not make it tonight

[Post-Chorus: Joey Batey & Madeleine Hyland, Joey Batey]
Because I don't find this easy like you
Gonna go home and dress my cat up like Batman
'Cause he's awesome like me

[Bridge: Madeleine Hyland, Joey Batey, Joey Batey & Madeleine Hyland]
And I don't find this easy like you (And I'll sing silence and ask my glass of wine for guidance)
(I might not make it tonight)
(Gonna go home and tell my cat)
I'm not lonely (I'm not lonely if I’m)
I just like being on my own
With you

[Outro: Joey Batey & Madeleine Hyland, Madeleine Hyland]
In the back of a cab, like two puppets with no strings
We share a pair of headphones, 'cause sometimes they're the only things
That keep our heads in place
That keep our heads in place
[Spoken: Joey Batey, Madeleine Hyland]
I totally messed it up again
Did you?
Like three times, three, three separate places
For fuck's sake
