The longer that I'm out here the better you sound

                                           
You're scrunching up your face in this picture I found

                                     
And I'm chasing after you, steadily losing ground

              (strum twice)
I don't wanna forget so I'm writing it down



        



Have you ever? No, never never?

I find that hard to believe

So let's burn the furniture
                
To see how angry a fire could make me


                                                              
Now you say that there's someone that you need to reconnect with

                                                              
Some scarecrow from high school that you loved but never slept with

                                                   
A baby with a pipe dream playing hopscotch on your bandages


                                              
And I'm singing all his songs while I sleep on your couch

                                     
I'm coughing up a lung but I'm covering my mouth

                       
And I paint you on the wall

                       
Yellow, red, green and brown

                   (strum twice)            
I miss you all the time but I'm blocking it out


        



Are you better? No, never never?

What does that say about me?
                    
Now let's break the smoke alarm
                 
To see how scared locked windows'll make me


                                                           
So you say there's a stranger staring sideways in a deep freeze

                                                     
A loner draped in ivy playing slumlord in his city dream

                                                                  
A faker with an art form pulling magic tricks on the weak girls up his sleeve


                                           
And I'm choking right along with the words in my throat

                                       
I'm falling back in love with the letter you wrote

                                            
And I think that I was wrong, but I guess I don't know

                   (strum twice)
I figure that I'll wait until you tell me so 



              

                                      
The longer that I'm out here the better you sound

                                           
You're scrunching up your face in this picture I found

                                     
And I'm chasing after you, steadily losing ground

                             
I miss you all the time but I'm blocking it out

                           
The longer that I'm out here 

                           
The longer that I'm out here 

                               
The longer that I'm out here 

                    Bb (strum twice)
The longer that I'm out here the better you sound.
