A#D# I am sorry this is always how it goes A#D# The wind blows loudest when you've got your eyes closed CmGmD# But I never changed a single color that I breathe F So you could have tried to take a closer look at me A#D# I am tired of punching in the wind A#D# I am tired of letting it all in CmGmD# And I should eat you up at spit you right out F I should not care but I don't know how
CHORUS GmF So I tape up my face A#D# Cause it reminds me how it all went wrong GmF And I pull out my tongue A#D# Cause it reminds me how it all went wrong
VERSE 2 A#D# I am sorry for the trouble I suppose A#D# My blood runs red but my body feels so cold CmGmD# I guess I could swim for days in the salty sea F But in the end the waves will discolor me
CHORUS GmF So I tape up my face A#D# Cause it reminds me how it all went wrong GmF And I pull out my tongue A#D# Cause it reminds me how it all went wrong GmF And I cough up my lungs A#D# Cause they remind me how it all went wrong GmF But I leave in my heart A#D# Cause I don't want to stay in the dark
CHORUS GmF So I tape up my face A#D# Cause it reminds me how it all went wrong GmF And I pull out my tongue A#D# Cause it reminds me how it all went wrong GmF And I cough up my lungs A#D# Cause they remind me how it all went wrong GmF But I leave in my heart A#D# Cause I don't want to stay in the dark
