[Intro]
G#m    E
B      F#

[Verse 1]
                G#m
You packed your shit up

And dammit I miss us
        E
Maybe a hiccup or
 maybe a mistrust
             B
It's hard to share without
 falling to pieces
          F#
You don't care,
 I know it's all on me
                    G#m
And now I got a few women
swimming in my bed
    E
And none of them are you,
                     B
 I understand, but, why?
           F#
Is this so easy for you?
 Does it destroy you?

[Chorus]
G#m
Don't paint me out to be
 anything that can never
 be your everything
  E
I don't like this, no,
I don't buy it

Push me to the side,
just another night of silence
G#m
Tear me down terribly

I can see that I'm being
 left out to bleed
  E
I won't fight this,
I'll just keep quiet

Everything is fine when
 I hide bеhind my eyelids

[Verse 2]
G#m              E
I know I've been pathеtic

I know it's embarrassing
            B
Grab me the kerosene

I'll pour it on everything
                  F#
This shit's gonna bury me

I'll watch it all burn
And I've been acting
    G#m
on emotion, damn
Everybody sees it,
           E
 I've been falling down
Lost a lot of friends and
             B
 now they're falling out
Dug another hole that
         F#
I'll be crawling out of
                      G#m
And now I've got a few women
 I've been swimming inside
    E
Anything to get you off
               B
my mind, but, why?
             F#
Is this like nothing to you?
How do I get through to you?
G#m
I've been taking
 longer strives
    E
Without you right here
                  B
by my side, but, why?
           F#
Is this so easy for you?
Does it destroy you?

[Chorus]
G#m
Don't paint me out to be
anything that can never
 be your everything
  E
I don't like this, no,
 I don't buy it

Push me to the side,
just another night of silence
G#m
Tear me down terribly

I can see that I'm being
 left out to bleed
  E
I won't fight this,
I'll just keep quiet

Everything is fine when
 I hide behind my eyelids

[Instrumental]
G#m E
B   E

[Bridge]
G#m
So don't you dare say
that we're okay
             E
You took the hand that
 pulled you out of the gray
               B
But, you won't admit
and that's all I guess
                  E
So right here, we sit
 with disdain on our lips


[Chorus]
G#m
Don't paint me out to be
anything that can never
be your everything
  E
I don't like this, no,
 I don't buy it

Push me to the side,
 just another night
 of silence
G#m
Tear me down terribly

I can see that I'm
 being left out to bleed
  E
I won't fight this,
 I'll just keep quiet

Everything is fine when
I hide behind my eyelids

G#m
Don't paint me out to be
 anything that can never
 be your everything
  E
I don't like this, no,
I don't buy it

Push me to the side,
 just another night of silence
G#m
Tear me down terribly

I can see that I'm being
 left out to bleed
  E
I won't fight this,
I'll just keep quiet
Everything is fine when
                          G#m
I hide behind my eyelids
