G Am Bm C

we were sitting in the kitchen

G Am Bm C

when you stopped talking and leaned in

G Am Bm C

to me kiss me

G Am Bm C

someone somewhere once had said there are

G Am Bm C

living people who feel dead

G Am Bm C

figuratively

G Am Bm C

your heart was beating and you were breathing

D C G

but there’s much more to living than that

I had such a frightening thought

that I almost needed you

thanks for reminding me why

C G

I need to stop giving my self

to these people who

Am Bm

tell me their problems and kiss me

and look in my eyes like I can solve them

Bm C Em

you told me you were lonely

Bm C Em

and you told me you were nervous

Bm C Em

and you said that you felt anxious

Bm C D G Am Bm C

then why’d you kiss me you tell me

G Am Bm C

as you listed off insecurities

G Am Bm C

I realized what you never meant to me

G Am Bm C

we were never something special (3x)

G Am Bm C

we were only superficial.

G Am Bm C
