Ben Gibbard – Line of Best Fit Lyrics 20 years ago
ikefox,
I believe the correct lyrics are as follows:

These things take my time and energy;
don't stand too close without apologies.
Cut-throat, cut out candid glimpses and
wind me up, I'm ready.

These things take my time and energy;
don't stand too close without apologies.
I remember being inside of something more than you,
but I can't escape this line of best fit.
I can't escape this line of best fit.

Listen to the Death Cab recording of it for reference, Gibbard only slightly changes the order of the lyrics in that version, though I definitely prefer this acoustic version.
