We could sleep on the floor

Been having problems with our landlord

Some nights trash reality or kids cartoons or shitty documentaries

Not perfect but we're good together

                       D           G 
Yeah, me, you, and our bad tattoos

              G/B                       C
Yeah, all our stick and pokes, all our inside jokes

We'll regret them when we're dead and sober

But we're still breathing and the party ain't over
