[Verse 1]
EmI'm kicking down your Glove
CFaded like a light gone Amold
EmHanging there in empty sGpace
COut there in the hazy Amfog
I'm Emnot saying it's your fGault
But you Chid it under blanketsAm  
EmOh baby let me Ggo
CRelease me from your handle. Am  
I never wanna know
[Chorus]
EmYou used to shine so bright, but youG  
Soured at the Ctaste of a bitter leafAm  
Took it all Emout on me but I seGe
Through you and you Cwon't be causing me no griefAm, anymore
[Verse 2]
EmHanging loose from the Gwall
CStrips and flakes of Ampaint
EmI'm tearing down your Glove
CAnd all the last Amremains
EmI can feel the roof crash Gdown
But Cmaybe I'm dreamingAm  
EmLying on a redwood fGloor
CEyes fixed on the ceilingAm  
[Chorus]
EmYou used to shine so bright, but youG  
Soured at the Ctaste of a bitter leafAm  
Took it all Emout on me but I seGe
Through you and you Cwon't be causing me no griefAm, anymore
[Outro]
