and your headboards never felt so safe .
G D

where your friends and i will kill the lights ,
G C
and hide , oh what a nice surprise .

G D
dont dont , tell me when its coming , no
G
dont dont , i just want to see if for myself .

dont breathe , dont make a sound ,
D G
cause the song wont stop till the tape runs out .

when melody has nothing to hold ,
D G
ill be the last sound that you hear ,
D
as your eyes close .
