when we were fourteen

and i could hear the traffic
F
that i know you're ignoring

but i let it into my life
A# F
to thicken to air i breathe
VERSE:
A#
it was at the bus stop that a woman cried
F
and i could tell she was different by the look in her eyes
D#
and i don't know what she said
A# F
but i felt what she meant in her honesty
A#
and i went to your house that night

and the words in her mouth
D# A# F
and how i wouldn't mind taking her advice one day
A# F D# F

like you used to

before i did this

the more i grow pale

you're the sunlight
that i wished would leave
