[Verse 1 — stop-start riff; pinched, teasing cadence] I said yes with my mouth shut tight Gave the keys to a stranger at night Took the long way past my street Smiled so hard I could hear my teeth [Pre-chorus — drums stop between phrases] Hold still Hold still Can you hear that little crack? [Chorus — rest before first line; ragged unison shout] I can feel it coming loose All the glue I called the truth Shake it once, let it move I can feel it coming loose [Verse 2 — tight bass and drums; clipped delivery] Bought a ticket for the wrong train home Told my friends I had meant to go In the glass I practiced looking pleased It didn't look a thing like me [Pre-chorus — leave a full beat of silence] Hold still Hold still Can you hear that little crack? [Chorus — guitars answer the ends of lines] I can feel it coming loose All the glue I called the truth Shake it once, let it move I can feel it coming loose [Bridge — half-time; dead stop after "fine"] Say I'm fine Say I'm fine Hear the floorboards answer back I'm not fine [Final chorus — fast, loose; final phrase without drums] I can feel it coming loose All the glue I called the truth Shake it once, let it move I can feel it coming loose Coming loose
