Em A
I know what you're doing, I see it all to clear
A9 C9/G D9/F#
I only taste the saline when I kiss away your tears.
Em A
You really had me going, wishing on a star.
A9 C9/G D9/F#
The black holes that surround you are heavier by far,
Em A
I believed in your confusion, you're so completely torn.
A9 C9/G D9/F#
It must have been that yesterday was the day that I was born.

Em A
There's not much to examine, nothing left to hide.
A9 C9/G D9/F#
You really can't be serious, to have to ask me why
FM9/C
I say goodbye...

C9 G9
'Cause I am barely breathing, I can't find the air,
Am FM9/C
I don't know who I'm kidding imagining you care;
C9 G9
And I could stand here waiting, a fool for another day;
Am
I don't suppose it's worth the price, it's worth the price
FM9/C
The price that I would pay yeah, yeah yeah.
Em A
Everyone keeps asking, "what's it all about?"
A9 C9/G D9/F#
I used to be so certain, now I can't figure out.
Em A
What is this attraction, it's only filled by pain?
A9 C9/G D9/F#
There's nothing left to reason and only you to blame,
FM9/C
Will it ever change?
(Repeat Chorus)
C9 G9 Am FM9/C----
But, I'm thinking it over anyway, yeah, yeah, yeah...
