This is the only lonely picture
Waiting on my floor
Littering my shore
This is the last true burning letter
Given to a girl
Written by a boy
Living in a world created to destroy

But if I built you a city, would you let me?

Would you tear it down?

Am G F
And I could still be ruthless if you'll let me

Verse 2 *Same as Verse 1(use same strum pattern as into)*
And this is your ghost that kneels before me
Razors on her tongue, a body full of oxygen
It wont be the last time she'll ignore me
The thinning of my skin, without the strength to go
The winter's setting in, to cover you in snow
