(ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah)
Closed the door of the hotel room,
It was the only place that we were open,
You waited outside,
Pulling words from the smoke you're toking,
Why don't we sit out on the steps?
I like the cold of the night
I can see your breath,
So let's talk up all the lies,
Back and forth in the streetlights,
Til' one of us is up and walking,
We'll chip away at each other,
Til' there's nothing left to be broken,
You said I should have known,
Built a castle of my own,
Oh I paid no mind,
Is this your reason catacomb?
(ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah)
Hot water on the sugar,
I burnt my fingers to the bone,
(ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah)
I was holding too tightly,
Too human for a home,
(Are you still there?)
Offer up the truth,
I'll trade you for the pages of the fable,
I've got nothing to hide,
Always leave my phone up on the table,
Settle in the fold,
Weary from your heavy mind,
A couple' canaries,
Hidden in the coal mine,
I can see you think about it,
You want to give it away,
Just tell me how you're feeling,
We're pulling in the day,
You turn on the charm,
To find yourself a way out,
Map out the door to the bed,
How come you still hang around?
(ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah)
Hot water on the sugar,
I burnt my fingers to the bone,
(ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah)
I was holding too tightly,
Too human for a home,
(ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah)
(ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah)
Hot water on the sugar,
I burnt my fingers to the bone,
(ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah)
I was holding too tightly,
Too human for a home.
