How the Mighty Fall

Makin' Out

I'll be the one who brings you coffee when you can't get up

I'll be the one who turns the light out when you go to sleep

I'll be the one who turns your stomach into something else and you say

Shut up, shut up, every time I say



I'll be the one who takes your coat off, one to take the blame

I'll be the one you call your lover, every now and then

You'll be the one who keeps me sober, one to keep me sane and you say

Shut up, shut up, every time I say it



And I'd cut my fingers to the bone,

And I'd split my sides in for you



Tonight, we throw ourselves away

And we make it every time

When I thought I was ok

You said I was alright

As the night comes crashing down

We catch ourselves a line

Yeah we're only makin' out

If we make it out alright



I'll be the one who stands beside you in the photograph

I'll be the one that's in your water when you want me there

I'll be the one you're falling over every time you laugh and you say

Shut up, shut up, every time I say



I'll be the one who keeps you guessing, who swears a lot

I'll be the one that let your colour in the white wash

You'll be the one that knocks the man out I was beating up and you say

Shut up, shut up, every time I say it



And you cut my face, I told you so

I'd tear my eyes out for you



Tonight, we throw ourselves away

And we make it every time

When I thought I was ok

You said I was alright

As the night comes crashing down

We catch ourselves a line

Yeah we're only makin' out

If we make it out alright



And I'd cut my fingers to the bone,

And I'd split my sides in for you



Tonight, we throw ourselves away

And we make it every time

When I thought I was ok

You said I was alright

As the night comes crashing down

We catch ourselves a line

Yeah we're only makin' out

If we make it out all right
