There's nothing here for me, but I'm here for [G#m] you, so I will never leave
And I'm starting to believe every [B] time you said you loved me you [C#m] were just talking in your sleep
[E] I would die for you
That was before I knew that it's all you wanted me to do and time and [F#m] time again
I can tell you I [E] hate you, but that will never [A] make it true
Even during the good times when you kissed me
[E] I didn't want to open my eyes
Because I didn't want to realize how hollow our love was, but now that it's over.
I'm still here and all I want [C#] to know is love
[A] And I only talk [E] about you in the past tense because through all of this mess
It's the only thing that makes [F#m] sense and all I do these [E] days is want
But I've settled [A] for wishful thinking and neglecting and justifying [E] my emptiness
Because it's easier to see what you have when you can see what your neighbor lacks
I would give an arm and a leg just to have my arm [C#m] and leg back
And I [E] worked so hard to help you find truth
Just to slowly learn that your silence says just as much about your character [F#m] as your words do
[E]
[A] [E] [E] We gave our love away
[A] I always thought that I would be
[E] I always,
[B]
[E] I never thought, I never
But you know inside of my conscience
The truth is I [B] can tell myself time and time again
That I'm not making sense of [A] it
And that cross around your neck was more [E] hollow than your head
But I still just wanted to follow you to bed
[F#] [C#m] [E] [F#m] You never listen to [E] why [G#m] [B] I have a choice
And maybe [A] I'm both because I'm getting [C#m] too big
And [E] I'm trying to change
[C#] But [E] [G#m] you shut [B] me away
[G#m]
[B] And that's why she still cuts your skin for you
[E] And that's why that she's still in you
[D#] And her name is acceptance
And she used to kill [C#m] me
And now she's killing you
[B] And through all this [E] stress and carried out disastrous distress
[D#] I've learned that I really don't like you
[E] But I forgive you
Because I love you
[G#m] I love you
[B]
And I'm starting to believe every [B] time you said you loved me you [C#m] were just talking in your sleep
