What did the storm wash away?

You're bailing out of the plans we already made.

It won't bother me now, and you know I'll be okay

Em D A C
I saw that look on your face
G B7 Am
You don't need me now, and sometimes you wonder if it's all
Em D A C
just another mistake, and why can't you just walk away
G B7 Am
You've got to measure the cost, what have you gained, what have you lost?
Em D A C
Well I often wonder why, you want to win but you won't fight.
G B7 Am
So the candle just keeps burning down on you.
