A E
Leaky holes and fire escapes will set the evening for tone
A E
You and your holy halo started burning eventually just froze
A E
Sewn into the carpet just trying to thaw out whatever I know
A E
The thermostat it won't go higher not that you or I know
A C#m E
I was drinking heavily
A C#m E F#m
I burst into your bedroom belligerently
A E A E F#m
Asked her if she's done a thing like stepping out and making a scene
A E A E A
So foolishly I was apathetic so I blamed your family and Never mended it
A E
Shitty brakes and balding tires we're out around on the road
A E
You and my little sister, flashy frequent scariest snow
A
And we return just fine
E
I started to crack your analytical code
A E
By the time you're convinced, I know
A E x3
A E
When I was drinking heavily
A E F#m
I burst into your bedroom confusingly
A E
Yelled about a bunch of things
A E F#m A
that if you looked you'd never see for our eternities
E A
And I blamed you for not being
E A G#m F#m E A
someone you could not be someone you'll never be
( A A C#m C#m )x4 E
Now I see everything and everyone you see
A E
Killing time alone inside a stripped and nakedest home
A E
Couldn't catch my brain up with the sights and fear that I saw
A E
Fell into the doorway hoping you had left the guitars
A E
It's way too late for calling anyways I guess I'll doze off x5
A E
I've been drinking carefully
A E F#m
I creep into our bedroom and watch you sleep
A E
My mind it wanders onto things
A E F#m A
that if I try I can't explain as if there's something worse
E A E A E
As if there's something worse, to have weaned away your worth, when I was
A E A
so absurd Well is there something worse?
