G
Follow me down to fake streets so far.
We were way too young but now they're stars.
Em D
Cause someone's talking of blood.
G
Standing so cold in photography, their faces knew,
And clearly showed every word that nothing comes true.
Em D G A
I'm here stuck in this town no more.
I hoped you would say
Bm
scratch the paper and pass a moment
G
making us both around your shoulders
A
Let's go for the walls, never mind who was there,
Just think: the night is guilty in my view of the past.
G
So now it's obvious I've learned, let's see your bet.
Her favorite place to sit, to forget.
Em D
Cause no one watched or would care.
G
They smile just to be safe,
Making sure nobody saw two dancing girls with their grins painted on.
Em
Cause new year's night to yourself, oh now it's seventy three.
D
But you didn't see it, did you?
G A
I read your note. You're a poet.
(my coattails sing)
Bm
Minutes call for longer,
G
Finger prints show loss of blood,
A
But being perfect was always hard,
Wasn't it, wasn't it, to you?
Bm
The motivation is hard to find
G
The screams were heard but never cried,
A
So tell me how do you go through,
Tell me what brings you to this place.
Bm
They will not be afraid,
G
Only two know how sad this gets.
A
The stage is set for them both,
And on the bathroom floor, glass ready, there's no turning back now.
Bm G A
Bm
So when the crowds take the credit all away from you.
G
You broke fate, so wait. I can't stay. I'm gone.
A
Being perfect was always hard, wasn't it?
Wasn't it? Wasn't it, to you?
Bm
So pack your bags, I think we're better off on our own.
G
Only for this. I guess I don't mind.
A
Stay safe and you'll be fine.
Now and there. It's time to go, let's run.
Bm G A
That's enough.
Bm G
Because I bet you wished.
Bm G
Because I bet you wished.
Bm G
(Run away. Kill me tonight)
Because I bet you wished.
Bm G
(Run away. Kill me tonight)
Because I bet you wished.
Bm G
(Run away. Kill me tonight)
Bm
For the better days to come back over you.
G
Now we're dead. I bet you wished.
(Run away. Kill me tonight)
Bm
For the better days to come back over you.
G Bm
Now we're dead, I bet that you can say you wished.
Bm
Minutes call for longer,
G
finger prints show loss of blood,
A
but being perfect was always hard, wasn't it?
Wasn't it, to you?
Bm G
The screams were heard but never cried,
A
so tell me how do you go... Bm
tell me what brings us to this place.
G
only two know how sad this gets
A
the stage is set for them both,
Bm
and on the bathroom floor, glass ready...
