Standard (EADGBE)

 Don't you dare

Speak someone you don't know.

 They'll feel it in the back of their throat.

 We know I can't construct a poem,

Cause words like girls get bored and run

 C'est la vie, I say "I've got so many better things"

 I've got nothing, you should see me,

 I smoke myself to sleep.

 And blame postmodern things I can't relate,

Like summer camp and coastal states.

 Like alcohol and coffee beans.

Dance floors and magazines.

 I think its safe to say I've only got myself to blame

 But boys in swooping haircuts are bringing me down,

Taking pictures of themselves.

 And so I walk the web in search of love,

But always seem to end up stuck.

 I'm finding flaws in everyone.

I've reached the point where all I want,

 Is to sleep around in hopes that I will catch back up.

 We are parallel lines we’re running in circles,

We're never meant to cross.

 I'm at a loss, you were my tangerine,

My pussycat, my trampoline.

 Now alls I get are wincing cheeks,

And dog problems, I signed a lease.

Thinking my heart belonged at 93rd and park.

 Instead I broke a girl’s heart,

And flew back to Phoenix to finish the year as it started.

 Can you hear me? Are you listening? This is the sound of my heart breaking.

 And I hope it's entertaining, Cause for me it’s a bitch. Was it worth it?

 When you slept with him? Did you get it all out of your system?

B is for believing you'd always be here for me.

E is for everything, even when we see it though.

C, c is for seeing through you, you are a fake, which brings me

To A because, because, you always run away.

 I never finish phrases, I misspell.

Open arms are prison cells.

 When I said, "I hate what I've become"

I lied, I hated who I was.

 So when you start to wonder 'bout the pain in my throat,

 Then don't you ever, no never, ever, speak for someone you don't know.
