[E]
There's nothing here for me, but I'm here for you [G#m] so I will never leave.
And I'm starting to [D#m] believe every time you said you loved [C#m] me, you were just talking [B] in your sleep.
[A] And [E] I said I would die for you, but that was before I knew that it's all you wanted me to do.
[F#m] And time and time again I can tell you I hate [E] you, but [A] that won't ever make it true.
Even during the good times [E] when you kissed me, I didn't want to open my eyes.
Because I didn't want to realize how hollow our love was.
But now that it's over, I'm still here [F#] and all I want to know is love.
[A]
And I [E] only talk about you in the past tense because through all of this mess, it's the only thing that [F#m] makes sense.
And all I [E] do these days is want, [A] but I've settled for wishful thinking and [E] neglecting and justifying my emptiness.
Because it's easier to see what you have when you can see what your neighbor lacks.
I would give an arm and a leg just to [C#m] have my arm and leg back.
[A] And I worked so hard to help you [E] find truth, just to slowly learn that your silence says just as much about your character [F#m] as your words do.
[E] [A]
We gave our love away.
I always thought that I would.
[E]
I always thought that I would.
[B]
I always thought that I would be a
[E]
I never [A] thought, I never thought,
[D] [E]
that all this silence would constitute the truth.
[B] Because I can't show myself time and time again that I'm not [E] making sense of this.
[A] And that cross around your neck was [E] more hollow than your head.
But I still just wanted to follow you to bed.
[A]
[C#m] [E] [F#m] I never listened [E] to my own voice.
Maybe some [B] of us embrace death.
Some of us [E] don't have a [B] choice.
[A] And maybe I'm broke because [C#m] I didn't choose this.
But [E] that doesn't mean I'm gonna [F#] change.
Because [E] I never knew, and [G#m] you never did.
[B] [G#m] [B] And that's why she still cuts your skin for you.
[E] And that's why that she's still in you.
[G#m] And her name is acceptance and she used to kill me.
[C#m] And now she's killing you.
[B]
And through all this [E] stress and carried out disastrous distress,
[G#m]
I've learned that I really don't like you.
[E] But I forgive you because I love you.
[G#m]
I love you.
[Em] [N]
