Another fight,

and we're in silence.

This room is torn to shit.

Now we’re comfortable

Bb C Bb F

and the mystery is dead and gone.

Your tattooed frame

no longer satisfied,

cause I settled for so long.

Well in my head

C Bb

my hands are around your neck,

F Gm Bb C Bb F

but I'm still kissing you goodnight.

- Chorus:

F Gm

Cause I'm not a liar,

Bb C Bb

maybe a storyteller.

F Gm Bb

But when I promised you the world,

C Bb F

I was just trying to make it better.

F Gm Bb

And my anxiety won't let me sleep,

C Bb F

I lay awake at my two feet.

Gm Bb C Bb

An open road full of possibilities,

F Gm Bb

But then I hear you mumbling,

C Bb F

You only do that in your sleep

Gm Bb

Honestly it's fucking scary,

C Bb

but it reminds me why,

why I still try.
