[Intro]
D Bm G A
[Verse 1]
D Bm G A
I carved my name into your ribcage
D Bm G A
We talked of lands away from this cage
D
You said “Don't fret love, someday I'll be my own man
Bm
I'll be free”
[Chorus]
G
Oh, but darling did you mean
A D
Darling did you mean free from me?
D
You promised home
Bm G A
The kind I've never known
D
But here we are
D
Skin and flesh and beating hearts
G A
I'm wondering what the hell I'm doing wrong
D
You said “let's make ourselves our very own brigade
Bm
This love our shield, our blade”
[Chorus]
G
Oh, but darling did you see
A
The cuts from which I bleed
D
It's me you've slain
D A
I didn't obliterate these walls for you
D
To come and raid my home
G
And here you are, right next to me
A D
Ironically, I've never felt more alone
Bm G A
I fell for you faster than I fell apart
[Chorus]
D
And I guess I'm the one to blame
G A
For letting myself fall too hard
D
I ripped my heart and put it in your hands
A D
In hopes that we'd put up a fight
G A
How paradoxical, since now all I can think about
D
Is when will we stop trying
Bm
Ohhhh, how do we stay afloat
G A D
When do I let go?
D
All you do is blindside me, it's hard to be brave
G A
But when the night cuts into the day it's your love I crave
G A
I must've thanked my lucky stars too much
D
They left me sitting in too much dust
[Outro]
D
You know all my dreams
D
You were one, so it seemed
Bm
And I loved you, but with you
G
It's heartache I breathe
A D
You showed me your heart but you never let me have the key
D
Oh, my love
D
Is this the end for us?
D
