I want to cut off all my hair

Promise of the same

Take up a residence just off the coast and

Oh god don't let this be love

No not missin' you at all

I'd light up a new bad habit

Start talking in the night 
Dm 
If I ever thought of you I'd say

Soon be outside my new door

I ain't never been in love

Your new home up in flames

Certain that would change
