I wrote down the lyrics by ear, I have no idea if they re right or not. The chords
sound pretty accurate, though.

Intro:
x8
We sleep in single beds
x4
Excited to be out from the cold
We ll lose our interest
x4
When we realize we all sleep alone
So you come here tonight
Yeah, you come here tonight
And we can find a plane and take it up
And smoke the sky into our lungs
And share the scarf your mother knit
And cuddle close to make it fit
But we won t ever talk
No we don t ever talk
We fight
x4
I m mocked and sleepy and
x4
My eyes are such an odd shade of grey
So if i close them we ll just understand
x4
It s better off that way
They cannot pierce your heart
No they cannot pierce your heart
But I can sing the songs our fathers knew
When they were kids in Catholic school
Their heroes then are legends now
But death has brought them to the ground
And we won t ever talk
No we won t ever talk
We ll fight
And I will find a bird, your favorite kind
And hold him as to make him mine
And he will bring a note to you
A letter of the honest truth
And it will tell you just to run
Don t stop until the morning comes
Or until my light has ceased to burn
The dreams I wished I d never learned
About the times you d wished you d had
But held them back to keep me sad
So here tonight, we ll work this through
If you don t come I ll come to you
Because we don t ever talk
No we don t ever talk
We fight
