Last Three Letters

Intro: F
Sing:
dearest love
I hope this message
finds you well
as these endless thoughts
drip from my soul
every single word secretly
paints a fairytale
of when we will
melt into
Growl:
(hold)
one
Verse 1:
Growl:
eyes forfeit
sight to the pain
cold scalpel's steel
whispers tear
at my very core
as I cling to
memories of you
I am so scared
so scared
I need you with me
Chorus:
Sing:
were the last
words that I
wrote for you
Growl:
enough to tell you
that in my death
Sing:
the light that
shone through
my painful darkness
was a blinding vision
Growl:
of your eternal smile?
Verse 2:
Sing:
it's me again
Growl:
is it me or
am I wrong
Sing:
to be concerned?
will the beauty
of your pen
Growl:
ever cross
my eyes again?
Silence:
was this all
a lie? why?
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge: Dm--Bb-C x4
Speak:
make it stop
make this pounding
in my head stop
fill my lungs with air
give me one more day
to make her
dreams come true
she understands right?
that I'm not coming back
she understands right?
that I'm not coming back
make it stop make
the pounding stop
I'm not coming
back I'm not
coming back
I'm not coming back
I don't know what
happened who would
have thought my life
would end up like this?
I didn't mean
to hurt her not hurt
her like this I
can't feel my legs
I can't feel my legs and
I can't even cry how could
somebody die like this?
Verse 3:
Sing:
if my words ever reach
you I'll assume you don't care
Growl:
never knew that silence could cut so
deep or that you could twist the blade
now I curse all of your beautiful lies
I love you and goodbye
(Repeat Chorus)
Outro:
Growl:
cold scalpel's steel whispers
tear at my very core
as I cling to my memories of you
