[Verse 1] You left your coat on the kitchen chair One sleeve dragging across the floor The clock keeps leaning toward the wall Like it knows what we’re waiting for [Pre-Chorus] I straighten the picture, it slips again I count to four, then start at ten [Chorus] Everything’s crooked, but I know the way Your key in the lock, your name on the day We bend, we break, we find our place A little off-center, still face to face [Verse 2] The hallway tile has a hairline crack Your old blue mug has a chipped-off rim You laugh and say, “It’s character” I say, “It’s just how we live” [Pre-Chorus] I straighten the picture, it slips again I count to four, then start at ten [Chorus] Everything’s crooked, but I know the way Your key in the lock, your name on the day We bend, we break, we find our place A little off-center, still face to face [Bridge] If the whole room tilts, let it tilt I’ll meet you where the floor gives in No perfect line, no clean escape Just your hand finding mine again [Final Chorus] Everything’s crooked, but I know the way Your key in the lock, your name on the day We bend, we break, we find our place A little off-center, still face to face [Outro] Still face to face A little off-center
