Verse
D#m B F#
You are overbearing; I'm not in love
C#
But I don't wanna tell you

We've been contemplating how to give it up
C#
But I can't convince you
D#m B F#
We've been hopelessly holding too tight
C#

I know we have to leave too

I'm lying here, inches away
A# D#m C# B
But you can't hear me call mayday, yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
D#m B F#
Said I'm moving on, cause things were getting rough
C#
But here I am in your bed
D#m B F#
I strung it on too long, afraid to be alone
C#
Now we're in over our heads
D#m B F#
It's either sink or swim, we've tried so many times
C#
For worse or for better

It tears my heart in two to leave it all behind
C#
And say goodbye forever
