Them all away

Tell me you meant every word

If you'd stay

Like we were dancing in a fucking blood ballet
E MajorE
It was a massacre

How'd you get away?

'Cause oh, good heavens we abided by the night

But there are darker things than the absence of light

And they still creak through our halls
Post-Chorus 2:

I would build a city out of you and me
BB A augmentedA
There would be crime, but still a local grocery

If you'd stay
BB A augmentedA
If you'd stay
