Intro: Fm--C#--
Verse 1:
Tie these hands
They shake too
much to hold you
To hold you
With wandering eyes
It's so hard
to watch you
To watch out for you
To watch out for you
Chorus:
Every time you almost died
I chased your soul to the sky
And brought it back to you
Before your body
knew that it was gone
Every cut that didn't scar
I know exactly where they are
I wear them all for you
Your skin is such a nicer tissue
Verse 2:
I'm out of shape and
Much too slow to chase you
To chase you
It's time you
found somebody new
To save you
‘Cause I can't save you
I can't save you
Refrain:
No this is not alright
Everything's not fine
Don't trust me with your life
Don't put your faith in me
I'm much too weak to
keep you safe tonight
(Repeat)
(Repeat Chorus)
Your skin is such a nicer tissue
Bridge:
I'm cutting off my wings
I don't deserve to fly
What the hell have I done
I almost let you die
I let you down my friend
I failed you once again
But this time is way too
C#(hold)
close I can't save you
Verse 3:
I'm a fake
I'm entirely
made out of plastic
I'm a fake
I'll destroy almost
anything delicate
I'm a fake
Make you think that
everything's perfect now
I'm a fake, I'm a fake
And I've been found out
(Repeat Chorus)
Outro:
C# G#(hold)
I traded my skin for your scars
