[Verse 1]
You and I will be together when we shed our memory
I won’t wear an orange sweater when I get it off of me
When it’s as it someday is it always will have been the case
When your ever-searching finger finds the button marked erase

C G x5
Finger find the button marked erase
Like a deep sea diver falling into a mermaid’s embrace

[Verse 2]
x2
Put one box on the sidewalk then you return with the next and the first one’s gone
Everyone gets on the bus out of town and the lights start going out one by one

Button marked eraaaaase
When darlings must be murdered
When your heartbreak overwhelms your heart

[Verse 3]
x2
Think of this as solving problems that should never have occurred
Please don’t call it strangu-lation, that is such an ugly word

C G x5
Press erase, ignore the shrill alarms
See the way the deep sea diver falls into the mermaid’s arms

[Verse 4]
x2
Put one box on the sidewalk then you return with the next and the first one’s gone
Everyone gets on the bus out of town and the lights start going out one by one

Button marked eraaaaase
When darlings must be murdered
When your heartbreak overrides the very

N.C. Em Em Em Em C
Thing you cannot faaaace
The skeletons that won’t stay down
The mercy kill that can’t be drowned

[Verse 5]
Put box sidewalk then return next first one gone
Everyone on bus out lights out one by one

C G x5
Finger find the button marked erase
Like a deep sea diver falling into a mermaid’s embrace

[Verse 6]
x2
Put one box on the sidewalk then you return with the next and the first one’s gone
Everyone gets on the bus out of town and the lights start going out one by one
