----- x4

Verse 1

I finally fi-gured out that

you’re not coming back

and I'm not go-ing anywhere

You were the one with all the

 faith how did you let it slip away?

That’s right, I'm

blaming this all on you

and the little

 things you didn’t do

We both knew that

you were stronger

could have fought

a little longer

You didn’t hold

it tight enough

You lost your grip and I slipped

right through your fingers

Chorus

No more sleepless nights alone

This bed is better without you

No more waiting up for calls

I've got nothing left to say to you

Verse 2

Tell me again a--bout

those better days

This silence hurts me more

than anything you could say

Broken knuckles broken heart

 I fell in love then fell apart

You tried to run I tried to

 hide still we managed to collide

Fell so hard matching scars

 Held you close felt so far

Hearts beating out of time

You’re screaming with

no reason and no rhyme

(Repeat Chorus)

Post chorus:

So I will save this last breath

 for words that I won’t scream

I don’t feel like dying

(Repeat Intro Riff)

Watch the blood spill

Please don’t come

Verse 1

It’s kinda sad that I have learned

Do your eyes still

shine as bright as

 they did the days when

you were at your best?

If you run away from me

 I’m not running after you

It’s been a long time since I’ve

Now I’m choking on my words

 All the things I didn’t say

that could have made it all ok

Refrain 2

 Now that you’re all alone

and feeling sorry for yourself

Did it make sense to lie to me

 and deceive me like you did?
