D G D
[Verse 1]
D
I thought this was dead
Bm
And acted like I was so far
from it
G
Yet I'm farther than I've
D G D
ever been
D
Old ghost in my head
Bm
Please don't take what I have left
G
Even though it's something
D G D
that I might regret
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm
It's like a burning heat
when you see me
G
But we both know that it
D
won't go that far
A
Oh, it won't go that far
Bm
You said you never felt
safe with someone new
G
But here tonight you don't
D
know who you are
A
Who you are?
[Chorus]
Bm
But what a waste
G
If this weight is something
D
that I can't escape
A
That I can't escape
Bm
'Cause I would wait
G
My whole life to see you
D
just before you wake

Still stuck wondering
And caught between if

And eat the the lungs that I had left

Oh dear, am I weak or just a kid?

when you see me
