Standard (EADGBE)

 I swallow hard, because I know

 That what comes next will hurt, you more than me

 I bite my lip, to try to stop it from shaking

 The teeth have broken the skin, and the blood tastes cool to me

 After all, those nights you kept me warm

 I’d hold my breath, just to hear you sleep

 I must admit, I saw it coming

 The air between us, had gotten harder yet to breath

 I’d run away, if I could help it

 But I can’t remember to forget your face

 You can say, my heart has changed

 But it’s my will you’ve beaten down

 I’d kiss you now, but I feel my caustic tongue

 Would only serve to salt your wounds

 I must admit, I saw it coming

 The air between us, had gotten harder yet to breath

 I’d run away, if I could help it

 But I can’t remember to forget your face

 You are as beautiful, as ever

 Yet I’m starting to resent your smile

 Cuz its killing me, to say this

 But I’m dying inside to leave

It’s a place, we’ve never been

It’s a waste to keep it in

(It means little to you, but the world to me)

 But the world to me
