[Verse 1]
The chords we play
Ways left to communicate
These roads are paved with plans we've made
And your headboard's never felt so safe
Well they'll reach our graves where your friends
And I will kill the lights and hide
Oh what a nice surprise

[Chorus]
Don't don't tell me when it's coming (no)
Don't, don't I just want to see if for myself
Don't breathe
Don't make a sound cause the song won't stop 'till the tape runs out
When melody has nothing to hold
I'll be the last sound that you hear as your eyes close

[Verse 2]
And these chords remain
We'll use them to exploit the friends
We've since forgot those friends we've lost you
All know just who you are cause I've since made graves but I'm too scared to etch the names
For fear that I'm the one who's changed

[Chorus]
Don't don't tell me when it's coming (no)
Don't, don't I just want to see if for myself
Don't breathe
Don't make a sound cause the song won't stop 'till the tape runs out
When melody has nothing to hold
I'll be the last sound that you hear as your eyes close
[Bridge]
The thought of death it scares me to death and I don't know why, I don't know, it's just too much to never wake up

[Chorus]
Don't don't tell me when it's coming (no)
Don't, don't I just want to see if for myself
Don't breathe
Don't make a sound cause the song won't stop 'till the tape runs out
When melody has nothing to hold
I'll be the last sound that you hear as your eyes close
