Chess Isn't My Strong Suit, But Our Dresser Is Painted Black

(Verse 1)
The nails driven heavily into the wall
Curtains were drawn
I heard the shuffling of almost-human feet
But I still feel like the other teams' pawn

(Verse 2)
Your sugar coated shirts and socks
Staining everything you touch
Makes it easier to remember the locks
And holding onto your clutch

(Pre-chorus)
I hum dark words
Only I can hear
We watch the birds
And their feathers sear
We're all just nerds
But that's what they fear
They hide in herds
Look in the mirror

(Chorus)
And the record can't stop skipping
And the people won't stop tripping
You can blame it on your feet
But I'd tell you to blame it on the sheets

(Verse 3)
I'm just a bit too short to reach the microphone stand
Could you lower it to your height?
And you only cared when I got caught
Then maybe I just might stoop to your level

(Pre-chorus)
I hum dark words
Only I can hear
We watch the birds
And their feathers sear
We're all just nerds
But that's what they fear
They hide in herds
Look in the mirror

(Chorus)
And the record can't stop skipping
And the people won't stop tripping
You can blame it on your feet
But I'd tell you to blame it on the sheets

(Bridge)
Count up all the zeros
As I make fun of your words
But you're my biggest hero
And you know that I'm absurd
