[Verse 1]
C
You say my name
I pull away
Am
I can’t help it, I can’t take on all your pain
C
There’s a guilt in this
I taste in every kiss
Am
I don’t know, I’m just a little selfish

[Pre-Chorus]
Dm C
You need me, I don’t need you
Am
Just admit it, admit it
Dm C
Oh I’m too broken to fix you too
Am
I admit it, I admit it

[Chorus]
F Am
Ah ah, please don’t lean on me
C Dm
‘Cause I don’t want your heart between my teeth
F Am
I, I think I better leave
C Dm
‘Cause I don’t want your heart between my teeth
F Am
I can’t take the pressure of it
C Dm
I can barely breath
F Am
Ah ah, please don’t lean on me
C Dm
‘Cause I don’t want your heart between my teeth, no

[Verse 2]
C
In a perfect world
I’m the perfect girl
Am
So together always there to solve your problems
C
But underneath
It’s bittersweet
Am
The more I give the more I’m feeling incomplete

[Pre-Chorus]
Dm C
You need me, I don’t need you
Am
Just admit it, admit it
Dm C
Oh I’m too broken to fix you too
Am
I admit it, I admit it

[Bridge]
Dm C
I-I-I bite my tongue
Am G
‘Cause I don’t know how to tell you
Dm C Am G
I’m getting this urge to run
Dm C
And I-I-I bite my tongue
Am G
‘Cause I don’t know how to tell you
Dm C
That you deserve someone else
Am G
Who can treat you like I want to
