The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

September never stays this cold

Where I come from, and you know

I'm not one for complaining (I'm not one for complaining)

But I love the way you'd roll

Excuses off the tip of your tongue

As I slowly fall apart (slowly, quietly, slowly)

Fall apart

This won't mean a thing come tomorrow

And that's exactly how I'll make it seem

Cause I'm still not sleeping

Thinking I've crawled home from worse than this

So please, please (please)

I'm running out of sympathy (I'm running out of sympathy!)

And I never said I'd take this

I never said I'd take this lying down

She says

Come on, come on, let's just get this over with

She says

Come on, come on, let's just get this over with

(I never said I'd take this lying down, let's just get this over with

and I've crawled home from worse than this)

She says

Come on, come on, let's just get this over with

She says

Come on, come on

(You always come close but this never comes easy)

I still know everything

(You always come close but you never come easy)

I still know everything

(This always comes close but you never come easy)

I still know everything

(You always come so close)

I still know everything, I still know everything, I still know

You always come close but this never comes easy

You always come close but you never come easy

You always come... you come in close

(I never said I'd take this lying down)

I never said I'd take this lying down

But I've crawled home from worse than this

If it's not keeping you up nights

(Then what's the point?)

Then what's the point?

(Then what's the point?)

Then what's the point?

I'm in your room

Is this turning you on

Am I turning you on?

I'm in your room

Are you turned on?

I'm on the corner of your bed

I'm thinking maybe

Are you turned on

Are you turned on?
