We're on the back burner, but I won't stop till you take [F#] it away
[B] We took a wrong turn there, and now I'm looking for a place [F#] to stay
[B] I'm not what I used [F#] to be, I'm [G#m] distant like an [B] empathy
Drop your guard and I'll [F#] come see, call [G#m] me anything [A#] and I'll agree
Oh, [F#] won't you call it what [D#m] it [B] is?

[A#]
[B] My whole outlook changes with every [F#] passing hour
[B] But I don't feel so fickle whenever [F#] you're around
[B] You're not what I thought [F#] you'd be, [G#m] delicate with words [B] you weave
Carry yourself [F#] recklessly with [G#m] an air of [A#] northern mystery
Oh, [F#] won't you call it what [D#m] it [B] is?
[F#] I'm a mess, but you still [D#m] insist

And now I'm [B] struck down to earth with [F#] a bang
[B] Watching images of you [F#] start to fade away [A#] and crumble in [B] my hand
Oh, won't you [A#] call [C#]
[F#] it what [D#m] it [B] is?
[F#] I'm a mess, but you [D#m] still insist
