G Am Em
Last night, sitting in the dark

I was being difficult

Are we gettin' wise

Head long into the night

I was all alone and I was contemplating letting you know
Am Em
But tonight we’re speaking code
C
Head high into the wild

Contemplating loss and the consequence of getting old
Am Em
But for now we’re speaking code
[Chorus]

When the roof comes down on us

I know you’re gonna be the last one around I trust

All the late night knocks on us
