Verse 1:

N.C. E I don't wanna die A At least not without you F#m Alone here in the August heat A In the shadows of the afternoon

Verse 2:

E I don't wanna die A But I'm petrified of getting up F#m And there's a draft coming from underneath A A door I swore I'd painted shut

Verse 3:

E I'm staring at the sun A Even though I'm sure that I'm asleep F#m And it's expanding out to swallow us A I can feel the low, persistent heat

Verse 4:

E I don't try to run A I wait out there on the porch swing F#m And in the orange glow and eerie calm A The continent slides off into the sea

Verse 5:

E I don't wanna stay A Under the low clouds of a humid heat F#m I'm singing softly out of tune A I can never find the key

Verse 6:

E I don't wanna die A Or maybe I do F#m 'Cause everything's so fucking dark A You found me crying in the other room
Outro: F#m A It's been years since I've been low like this I don't like me F#m A Playing piano with a broken wrist I don't like me F#m A And I've been waiting at the window sill I don't like me F#m A I need you to know I love you still I don't like me E
