Intro
C# G# C# G#
[Verse]
C#
I hope my absence haunts you like a ghost
G#
Eating away at you from time to time
C# G#
I know I’m absent from your life and mind but you still haunt mine
[Verse]
A#m G#
There’s a different kind of emptiness you left me with after all of this
F# C#
And I can’t wrap my head around the fact that you’re not coming back
A#m G#
There’s a chemical imbalance that you left inside my brain
F# C# F#
You’re the reason why the alcohol is still rotting in my veins
[Chorus]
A#m C#
I’ll be ok this is something I can get through
F# A#m C#
But I don’t know if I can say the same about you
[Verse]
C# G#
I know a world of stability is all that you could ever see and when everything falls apart
Dear God I know it’ll fall apart
C# G#
I hope you buckle at your knees and think of me
[Verse]
A#m
I’ll leave you with this emptiness as your parting gift
G#
These heavy words I know you can’t lift
C#
(Between the two of you there’ll be a common rift)
And thats me. The problem you can’t fix
A#m G#
The chemicals have balanced as I’m writing off your name
C# F#
I hope the thought of us and broken trust stays frozen in his brain
[Chorus]
A#m C#
I’ll be ok this is something I can get through
F# A#m C#
But I don’t know if I can say the same about you
[Bridge]
F#
Truth be told we are not the same
G#
A# future sold that was built on blame
A#m
I pray you can’t bear the guilt and shame
C#
I’ll stay a thorn in your side that’s worn with pain
F#
Day in day out it won’t get better
G#
Even your friends say forever fair-weather
A#m C# F#
Stay stuck. You’re a stormy sky with an idle mind you deserve each other
[Outro]
G# A#m
And I’ve been picking you apart in my head
F# G# A#m
Trying to see between you and me if there was anything worth keeping
I’m empty handed once again
C# F# C#
Constant consent. You lied to him about the time we spent.
F# A#m
Relapse. Repent. Your judgement lapse came and went.
C#
You said that life was built on compromise
F#
A# statement laced with fraying ties on borrowed time you’ll never find
A#m C#
So in the end you took what was yours and stole what was mine.
