Landlords (Acoustic)

[Verse 1]

Cold floors, landlords, knocking, knocking

Should we let him in?

Should we lock the door and throw away the key?

What should we hide first?

Should we throw away the doors, throw away the sink

Throw away every last comforting thing

Throw away the beds so no one can tell?

This is how we, this is how we'll

[Chorus]

Shut the power off, gimme cold cramped rooms

Disconnected phones and leaky roofs

Give it to me in large unpaid bills

This is how we, this is how we will spend the rest of our days

Forever and always

This is, this is how we, this is how we

This is how we live

[Verse 2]

This is how we learn from our mistakes

Repeat them over and again

Put them all together, that's what we do

With a little curtain separating each room

Argue, bicker and fight

Everyone plots their escape

But in the end there's nowhere else to go

This is all we have, this is all we know

[Bridge]

Noise spilling out from the traffic on the boulevard

Broken glass and hicks in the tow yard

Outback say, "This is a declaration of war"

We've heard that before

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]

Shut the power off, gimme cold cramped rooms

Disconnected phones and leaky roofs

Give it to me in large unpaid bills

This is how we, this is how we will spend the rest of our days

Forever and always

This is, this is how we, this is how we

This is how we live

[Outro]

This is how we respond to a crisis

First we steal each other's stuff

Then we hide in all four corners of the house

Trying to pass the blame

We form another angry band

Brandon took all the pots and pans

And locked them in his room

Now what are we gonna do?
