Fading everything to black and blue

You look a lot like you’d

Shatter in the blink of an eye

You just look a lot like me

You’ve been waiting a long time

You’ve been waiting a long time

To fall down on your knees

Cut your hands

Cut yourself until you bleed

Fall asleep next to me

Wait for everyone to go away

And in a dimly lit room where you’ve got nothing to hide

To fall down on your knees

Cut your hands

Cut yourself until you bleed

But fall asleep next to me

Have a dream I’m falling down on my face

Scrape my knees scrape my hands until they bleed

Cause you’re fast asleep next to me
Gm
Next to me…
