-----VERSE 1 lyrics Bm7--> (a beat before "Wake up")-----
A/Bm7
Wake up with blood-shot eyes,
E/G#
Struggled to memorize,
A#dim?
The way it felt between your thighs,
Bm7
The pleasure that made you cry.
A/Bm7
Feels so good to be bad,
E/G#
Not worth the aftermath,

After that,
A#dim?
After that,
Bm, A
Try to get you back,

A(bar)
Give me somethin' to believe in,
Em                      F#(bar)  A(bar)  A#dim  Bm7(bar)
Cause I don't believe in you anymore, anymore,

Yeah, so this is goodbye.

-----VERSE 2 lyrics Bm7--> (a beat before "God damn")-----
A/Bm7
God damn my spinnin' head,
E/G#
Decisions that made my bed,
A#dim?
Now I must lay in it and,
Bm7
Deal with things I've left unsaid.
A/Bm7
I want to dive into you,

Forget what we're goin' through,

I get behind,

Make you move,

Forget about the truth,
