Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

I just can't quite explain

 Why it's not the same

 With you anymore

 It's not that you have changed

 Or that we're estranged

 I just wanted more

(Repeat chord pattern until prechorus)

I've always lived my life

Under watchful eyes

Always someone's girl

You only wanted me

As you thought I'd be

Living in your world

What do you know

What do you care

How could you think

Things were okay

How could I know

Behind that stare

You're on the brink

I couldn't stay

Stop sleeping and start bleeding

I know you're hurt and it's not fair

Stop dreaming and start bleeding

Blood on your shirt and in your hair

It kind of hurts when you're not there

And I can't quite explain

Why you act insane

Why you fail to cope

Something inside your brain

Trips a switch again

And you lose all hope

I'm not responsible

If you lose control

If you go too far

You try and cut yourself

But it doesn't help

It just leaves a scar

What do you know

What do you care

How could you think

Things were okay

How could I know

Behind that stare

You're on the brink

I couldn't stay

Stop sleeping and start bleeding

I know you're hurt and it's not fair

Stop dreaming and start bleeding

Blood on your shirt and in your hair

It kind of hurts when you're not there

What do you know

What do you care

How could you think

Things were okay

How could I know

Behind that stare

You're on the brink

I couldn't stay

Stop sleeping and start bleeding

I know you're hurt and it's not fair

Stop dreaming and start bleeding

Blood on your shirt and in your hair

It kind of hurts when you're not there
