EEverybody Asleeps
But DbmI haven't done that Ain the last few weeks or so
And Eyeah, I know the remeAdy

Especially my heart. EEspecially my brain
If F#I could bottle up this mess I could Ado it all again
And I don't wanna Eknow if there's another part of me
Don't wanna fBeel if I'm alive
Don't wanna Dbmsmell the bed where we used to sleep
I'm gonna miss it again, miss it again
Just wanna Ewalk away from the ashes
And take the fBact that I've been burned
And maybe lDbmet you know I'm still standin'
If you Amiss it again, miss it again, I'm around
E E6 E E6 A

And Eyou, you were down the Astreet
And DbmI watched you through the Awindows draped with sheets so white
And Eyeah, it looks a lot like Ame
Is it a Dbmcomfort that you needed or Acoincidence that's everything
Especially my eyes, E'specially my clothes
But F#does it move you inside out
Maybe AI don't wanna know!
And I don't wanna Eknow if there's another part of me
Don't wanna Bfeel if I'm alive
Don't wanna Dbmsmell the bed where you used to sleep
Gonna Amiss it again, miss it again
Just wanna Awalk away from the ashes
And take the Bfact that I've burned
And maybe Dbmlet you know I'm still standin'
If you Amiss it again, miss it again I'm around
E E6 E E6 A

And F#all the times you wanted out, you Anever said a thing about
How Dbmwe would just become the ships Ainside of a bottle
(A)                  (E)
Breakin' down, sails fallin' off
(A)                            (E)
Tryin' to stay afloat inside a place you can't survive
Are we Abreakin' down?Am  
'Cause I don't wanna kEnow if there's another part of me
Don't wanna Bfeel if I'm alive
Don't wanna Dbmsmell the bed where we used to sleep
I'm gonna Amiss it again, miss it again
Just wanna Awalk away from the ashes
Take the Bfact that I've been burned
And maybe Dbmlet you know I'm still standin'
If you Amiss it again, miss it again, I'm around
