[Verse 1]

Violent denial chasing

Turning and churning in the morning

Stoned and alone by the evening

It's so nice to have nothing to believe in

[Verse 2]

First big love, big school bully

Little one, you've become so ugly

Sit staring blindly at the sun

Mother of pearl, I'm not the one

[Chorus]

'Cause we're gracefully falling apart

A minute to midnight it starts

Drinking coffee in the dark

Trying to hold on, hold on to my heart

Gracefully falling apart

A minute to midnight it starts

Drinking coffee in the dark

Trying to hold on to my heart

[Verse 3]

I haven't seen him since the summer

And he says he's lost my number

Says he's back here to serenade me

Ooh, vodka and lemonade me

[Verse 4]

He tells me to save my breath

That smokers only smoke for an early death

Takes me for another midnight drive

Darling, this is how it feels to be alive

[Chorus]

'Cause we're gracefully falling apart

A minute to midnight it starts

Drinking coffee in the dark

Trying to hold on hold on to my heart

Gracefully falling apart

A minute to midnight it starts

Drinking coffee in the dark

Trying to hold on

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]

'Cause we're gracefully falling apart

A minute to midnight it starts

Drinking coffee in the dark

Trying to hold on hold on to my heart

Gracefully falling apart

A minute to midnight it starts

Drinking coffee in the dark

Trying to hold

[Outro]

Trying to hold on, hold on

Hold on, hold on

Hold on, hold on

Hold on, hold on to my heart

Drinking coffee in the dark
