i'm ten minutes late and five minutes under
i always hide when i hear thunder
yelling counts as storming, i tell myself
as i disappear into dust on a shelf

wicked teeth in a tell-tale grin
pull up a chair, let me tell you i'll win
we're not together in this big, dark fight
we only crash when the day meets the night
