[Verse]
F# Bmaj7
baby please, it’s the way you speak
F# Bmaj7
forming words so easily
F# Bmaj7
and i think of the way you think
F# Bmaj7
it keeps me from falling asleep
F# Bmaj7
in that grave i call a bed
F# Bmaj7
until you called me up and said
F#
"i haven't stopped crying
my father's been drinking
Bmaj7
i need a place to stay
F#
i don't want to be here
he's saying the words that
Bmaj7
he promised he would never say
F# Bmaj7
that liquid he consumes
F# Bmaj7
makes him speak the truth
F# Bmaj7
and i said no, its not that at all
F# Bmaj7
its that bottles of lies for a troubled heart
F# Bmaj7
its standing on the edge of a mountain top
F# Bmaj7
screaming anything he wants
F# Bmaj7
like, "look at me, look at me, look at me, look at me, look at me, look at me,
F# Bmaj7
because i exist, i exist, i exist, i exist, i exist"

[Verse]
F# Bmaj7
i remember the way you shook
F#
its a shame that we're not soul mates
Bmaj7
because if i didn't know better
i'd say this feels pretty good and
F# Bmaj7
how could i be scared?
F# Bmaj7
when i stretch and feel you're there
F#
so shut your mouth
Bmaj7
cause these words will speak themselves
F#
i can feel them in these blankets
Bmaj7
and they're surrounding your figure
Bmaj7
embraced in the quilts
F# Bmaj7
and i cant help but think
F# Bmaj7
you're my missing puzzle piece
Bmaj7
F# Bmaj7
i wake up in the hallway, i'm looking for sunlight
with rays that will cure me of the pain that keeps my lungs tight
F#
ignoring the voices and feelings that tell me
Bmaj7 F#
to get out of this house
Bmaj7
i cant make them stop
F# Bmaj7
i'm just like my mom
F# Bmaj7
and you said no, these demons will fall
F# Bmaj7
you're so precious to us all
F# Bmaj7
and i said i, i cant do this alone
F# Bmaj7
i still need you to hold
F# Bmaj7
so don't let go, don't let go, don't let go, don't let go, don't let go, don't let go,
F# Bmaj7
because i'm afraid, i'm afraid, i'm afraid, i'm afraid, i'm afraid, i'm afraid, i'm afraid
