G#m E G#m E
πΈ Verse:
G#m E
You said you were sober
G#m E
So I let you come over
G#m E
Your words pulled me closer
G#m E
But your words fuck me over
G#m E
I kept on denyin'
G#m E
So you kept on tryin'
G#m E
You went too far for closure
G#m E
Too far fucked me over
πΈ Chorus:
B D#m
I could just lie here, say, "It's okay"
G#m E
When I wanna rip all the doors off this place
B D#m
Set it on fire and just walk away
G#m E
So I can feel anything else but this weight
B D#m
'Cause I let you in when I needed space
G#m E
And you crossed a line when I pushed you away
F# G#m E
How could you?
F# G#m E
How could you
πΈ Verse:
G#m E
Oh
I more than regret you
G#m E
You'vΠ΅ convinced yourself I let you
G#m E
ThΠ΅ better version of me never met you
G#m E
Never let you in my bedroom
F# G#m
Oh, all those shitty lines and crooked blinds
E
And cheap red wine stains
F# G#m
Threaten suicide to change my mind
E
And keep me afraid
πΈ Chorus:
B D#m
You want me to lie here, and say, "It's okay"
G#m E
When I wanna rip all the doors off this place
B D#m
Set it on fire and just walk away
G#m E
So I can feel anything else but this weight
B D#m
'Cause I let you in when I needed space
G#m E
And you crossed a line when I pushed you away
F# G#m E
How could you?
F# G#m E
How could you
πΈ Outro:
G#m E
I once loved a liar
G#m E
'Cause he knew my name
G#m E
Would rewrite the story
G#m E
And make me to blame
E
How could you
