verse 1
G
Like flowers at your mother's wedding
C
The brighter shade of blue
G C
I'm clutching to the way I felt about you

Before the bags under my eyes

From tossing in my bed at night
G Am C
Now I know I never really loved you

verse 2
G C
Your parents tied a knot just like the one that's in my chest

The home they built is broken from the silence

You hold the past over your head

Drowning in your self regret
G Am C
I'll never be enough for what you wanted
Chorus
G D C
I'll never know what's good for me

So go ahead, tear me down

'Cause I am weaker than I seem

Yeah it's cool 'cause I can smile and pretend
G
That you're not wasting space in my head

You are only just a blanket that always left my feet cold
