[intro - instrumental guitar] [instrumental break] [guitar solo] Dah dahdahdah Dah dahdah Dah dahdahdah dahdah Dah dahdah dah! [verse - nostalgic storytelling, composed and serene] I’m on a mission, got a list of culinary demands, What is this thing? Some sort of fruit from a foreign land, This is the third store. This wasn’t part of the plan. Not in season? Not in stock? Heading home with empty hands. [pre-chorus - spoken] “You can’t buy what’s not for sale.” [chorus] they didn’t have that Sorry you get mad Sorry about how you get that way-hey hey hey You’ve got some rage and I’ll shoulder the blame that you need to place today hey hey hey I can take it I can take it Because that’s how much you mean to me. [verse - soft gentle storytelling, rising anxiety] When You asked, I wanted to help Simple task you were gonna do yourself I’m holding the iron and there’s rising steam And you reach to show me. a scald and a scream [pre-chorus - spoken] “Hot metal and skin don’t mix!” [chorus] I’m sorry about that Sorry you get mad Sorry about how you get that way-hey hey hey You’ve got some rage and I’ll shoulder the blame that you need to place today hey hey hey I can take it I can take it Because that’s how much you mean to me. [bridge] I’ll show it in how I show up, I’ll prove it in how I never give up, I’ll say it when we’re together. And I’ll be that wall you can bang your head against I’ll pull you close as frustration overwhelms, There’s two sides and I’ll be both for you, the clownfish takes the stings in the coral reef, I’ll be that clownfish to your sea an-enemy… Because you’re everything to me. [instrumental break] Dah dahdahdah Dah dahdah Dah dahdahdah dahdah Dah dahdah dah! [verse] Room Smells like bandaids, sitting in the chair, Ice chips and breathing, fingers through your hair, Rub your shoulders and I know it’s not fair This pain we decided that you’d go through. what comes after, That’s the future, What really matters, after the sutures hours later, when we finally meet her, This life together, and us is now more than two… [chorus] Not sorry you faced that I’ll take it when you get mad Not Sorry about how you get that way-hey hey hey You’re more than rage and I’ll shoulder the blame that you need to place today hey hey hey I can take it I can take it Because that’s how much you mean to me. [outro] I can take it I can take it I can take it Because that’s how much you mean to me.
