Do you think you're up for this?
Gm D#
Are you ready to get undressed,
A#
undressed in your evening best besides,
Gm D#
every heart is like a house on fire with escape
A#
routes in every room.

These are the trials of our youth.
Gm
But this charade is never going to last
F D#
so pick the poison and pour yourself a glass
A# A#/A
I still feel the same
A# Gm D#
No one’s to blame
A# Gm
I will be waiting outside if you're ready to go.

Your sun dress reflects in the headlight glow.
A# Gm D#
Besides, every heart is like a house of cards
A#
when the walls break down on you.
