[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
Ghopeless, he says that everything is hopeless
and now we're old enough to Emnotice it
says were Cbound for sure destruction
but our eyes have been closed to itG
[Verse 2]
Gout of sight, left a letter and left town tonight
said its better to lay Emdown than fight
and as he Cwent she starts carrying off every weapon in sight
and she tells him, EmI'm like a lipstick of dCynamite
and I could blow you right Ddown
[Pre-Chorus]
and IC've lost a lot trying to Gbetter your clock
but whatEmever you've Dlost I've Cfound
[Chorus]
Em so don't Dstop me Gnow
I'm alreadyC past the Empoint of trying to Dfigure it out
and if Gwhat's coming Dout of your Cmouth
is just a taste of all the trouble broken Dfigures you've found
then you Gcan't say what you've got on your Cmind
oh, Gwash your hands of everything and Cwrite off the time
she said Gthey should call you mr. Dcoward
because you loEmve ‘em before you Dleave ‘em beChind
[Post-Chorus]
when the Gbars close down, I know toCmorrow you'll be Dharder to Gfind
[Verse 3]
and I'm Gaching now, I mean I'm waking up and Embreaking out
I'm throwing off the chains that Cweigh me down
and Emerase the thought of fate on the Dfrown
and I'm Glosing it by any definition Emnew to me
I used to fumble and you Cmove your lips to stDone when you pull me Cdown
this love is Ggetting off the rough and were Emboth getting Dknocked aCround
[Chorus]
Em so don't Dstop me Gnow
I'm alreadyC past the Empoint of trying to Dfigure it out
and if Gwhat's coming Dout of your Cmouth
is just a taste of all the trouble broken Dfigures you've found
then you Gcan't say what you've got on your Cmind
oh, Gwash your hands of everything and Cwrite off the time
she said Gthey should call you mr. Dcoward
because you loEmve ‘em before you Dleave ‘em beChind
[Bridge]

[Outro]
and it takes a Glot to get her out the love seat (staring now when you said I'm breaking down)
and she's lost but she Dsays she's had enough of me (you've shown that you're ready for it now)
I'm blowing Amoff ambitions that she tried to keep (hell you always have to let it out)
she's having Cthoughts of spending time in other scenes (so let it out, just let it out)
and like a Gboss she's rolling up her rubber sleeves
wash it off aDbout as quickly as your lover bleeds
knees Amcrossed to have to live to watch another leave
reason Ctossed about through 50 thousand other means
so with all brokenG figures that you tried to be (you sat and you thought I would wait for rain)
no statistiDcian that showed you what you wait to see (no, you're impressed that I was coming off strong)
no songs that Amsaid we live in perfect harmony (I tried to tell you that I said it all wrong)
if you Cjust loved enough of me, just loved enough (but I guess you know)
