[Intro]
D A E
[Verse 1]
D A E
And in the night, it was a drunken stutter
D
Started as a next to nothing conversation
A
And then he's tearing me out
E D
Taking me apart at my friend's house
A E
I was uncomfortable, I was hurt
D
Still with blue innocence in his eyes
A E
I felt my reasoning was harsh
[Verse 2]
D A E
With every stab wound and exhale, I promised myself
D A
That I would never lose my youthful fears of grown up men
E D
I'm scarred with cruel intentions
A E D
I thought of another the whole time
A E D
Who would have never stared me like that
A E D
See, he saw me as a human
A E
This one thinks I'm a slaughterhouse
[Pre-Chorus]
D A
He pretends that he's understanding
E D
And you know in the grand scheme of everything
A E
He's probably called a nice man
D
Or an ordinary kind of man
A E D
Or a stereotype with strong hands, I'm so sad
A E D
At how little joy I realized within my time with my ex guy
A E
Before these statues arrived
[Chorus]
D
Romance is dead and done
A E D A E
And it hits between the eyes on this side
D
The grass is dead and barren
A E D A E
And it hurts between my thighs on this side
[Verse 3]
D A
I could begin to open up and risk desire
E D
For I move slower and quieter than most
A E D
I grew up too quick and I still forgive too slow
A E
Oh, I wish there was another way
[Chorus]
D
Romance is dead and done
A E D A E
And it hits between the eyes on this side
D
The grass is dead and barren
A E D A E
And it hurts between my thighs on this side
[Bridge]
D A E
See me here, meet me here
D A E
I don't care if it's not repeated
D
I want to know who you are
A E
For every second we outrun the moon, dread the sun come up
D
I want to know who you are
A E
So I don't have to check my stuff's still here when you're gone
D A E
I want to know who you are
D A E
I want to know who you were
[Chorus]
D
Romance is dead and done
A E D A E
And it hits between the eyes on this side
D
The grass is dead and barren
A E D A
And it hurts between my thighs on this side
[Outro]
E D A
This side
E D A
This side
E D A
This side
E D A E
This side
