I was a fool to think you'd break my fall
G                             A      A
You showed your colors to me after all
G                                A         A
Won't waste my breath trying to make you see
     G                                    A
That you couldn't handle being there for me

You ain't ever gonna see the day

You could ever make me feel afraid

All you are is dead weight

G                                  A       A
I catch my breath now that you're off my chest
G                           A                 A
I'm better now because you thought you were the best
G                                   A    A
I'm stepping out, I'm speeding up, I'm on the move
G                                 A     A  A  G   A   A   G
It's easier to get there without you, ooh

You could ever make me feel afraid
        A
Of your sticks and stones, your box of bones
A
All you are is dead weight
