[Verse 1: Kele Okereke]
CAt the table we're polite
I make a joFke but it falls flat
Silence falCls where laughter daily used to bFlow
Your job is fiCne, your friends are cool
You will Fmake me work for you
Bitter medCicine's exactly what I CmneedA#  
Before I Cknow, I left you bruised
But when I caFtch your old perfume
It takes me bCack to nights of passion in your rooFm
GYou've made an effort with your Chair
It's not for me, FI do not dare
To think that IC'm the one you dress for aCmnymoreA#  
[Chorus: Kele Okereke]
A#(Slow dAown) You don't caDmre to remember
A#(Slow dAown) You mDmean to pay me dust
(When I A#caught your Aeye) I couDmld tell the flame was far from gBmone
Am I wronA#g?
C F C F
[Verse 2: Olly Alexander]
CAnd you called me up this morning
Well, your vFoice is like a knife
I must lCike the way it hurts me every timFe
Please foCrgive me if it seems
Like I'm tFrying to conceal
What is Chappening to us or how I feel
CI think I'm angry and I'm sad
I kept your T-sFhirt and your cap
All this evidCence is surely looking Fbad
Well do you thCink about me still?
Are you Fhappy and fulfilled?
Will I alwaCys have a cA#ut that doesCmn't heaA#l
[Chorus: Kele Okereke]
A#(Slow dAown) You don't caDmre to remember
A#(Slow dAown) You mDmean to pay me dust
(When I A#caught your Aeye) I couDmld tell the flame was far from gBmone
Am I wronA#g?
