What I wouldn't give to give you
The benefit of the doubt
What I wanna ask, I'll ask you
You don't have to answer right now
'Cause what I need to know, I already know

Is that you painted the house
A nice clean shade of white
And you just let her go
As long as the neighbors think everything's fine

Honestly it makes perfect sense
I must get this from you too
'Cause order is my greatest defense
Against the blues

Oh I just paint them white
Keep every last line straight
Keep every angle right
As long as my friends think everything's fine
