[Db] She hopes that there's still something [Abm] left
Let go [B] now, cause he's leaving
[Db] _ But she'd be [Abm] fine pretending things were [B] alright
Even [Gb] while it's ending, keep it inside
She can [Abm] feel them bending
All [B] their love is pending
So what is she [Ab] defending?
_ [Db] Even when she [Abm] says she'll open [B] her eyes
All her words are empty
[Gb] When she denies that she can [Abm] feel them bending
