Intro Chords: Dm C G A#

Dm
Pardon me for saying so, but you look more pitiful
G
Than I had ever imagined, despite perfect fashion
Dm
And your photographs depict you so differently.
G
I always thought you would be some sort of match for me.


Dm        C      G      A#
So let's decide who can survive
Dm                C               G                 A#
Stomping feet and racing beats of hearts that don't ever slow.
Dm         C      G     A#       Dm       C
Then I'll write letters on white paper expressing,
    G          A#
My deep dissapointment. 
Dm                             G                                     Dm
Dripping where I stand from my watery hands, Hoping to get past the open bedroom door,
G                                                Dm
Where her clothes on the floor remind me of our conversation,
                       G
The feeling of slight hesitation

To turn out the light. 


Dm                                     G
Fourteen days now since we started to complicate the situation.
Dm                                  G
I'm not hiding I'm just buying some time for us to find the back door.


Dm      C       G           A#
We will come out when it's safe for us.
Dm         C
When it's safe for us..
G          A#          Dm C G A# Dm C G A#
When it's safe for us


Dm                                       G 
There's nothing left to say to excuse the way that I've behaved.
                  Dm
I still feel him gripping like a stain 
            G
To fabric, torn at every seam ,
     A#      A
Then thrown away


Dm                                               C
Why should I take all the blame for my mistakes? You were there with every 
         G
promise made to break.
Dm                          
When did you become the one without regret?
C
Kill me. 

Burn me down.
          G
I swear I won't forget.
Dm       
When did you become the one without regret?
C
Kill me.

Burn me down.
           G
I swear I won't forget.
