Em D/F# G
I'm standin' here in your closet,
C+9 Am
Unbuttonin' all your clothes
Em D/F# G
You sleep in your bed tonight,
C+9 Am
But i never find you home
Em D/F# G
You're givin' me crooked answers,
C+9 Am
I'm crackin' your little code
Em D/F# G
I'm learnin' another language,
C+9 Am
So full it's about to explode

Your plane doesn't ever land

Some things i don't want to look at,
C+9 Am
I don't want to understand but
