Intro: C5
[Verso 1]
C
It's the day after and I want you to stay for a while
I lose my grip on your shirt, I'm laying here in denial
G C
Dissociating 'cause intimacy scares me a lot
G
First time my eyes are open, first time I don't fear the touch
Why can't you see what I see?
C
My God, you can't see at all
G
If you saw what I see, you wouldn't come when I call
C
You'd be arrogant, I'd see your face on every screen
Fmaj7
Instead you waste late nights on a screen laying next to me
And when I'm begging for it to be over
N.C
I imagine you say
[Refrão]
Am
Can I stay for a little while?
E
This isn't meaningless sex
G
And I want to fall in love again
C F C
[Verso 2]
G
People pass me on the pavement
C
And they don't seem to make a sound
G
God, when you're away, all my thoughts are fuckin' loud
C
You called me heroin, but heroin is never this sweet
G
If this was heroin, then you'd still be shaking at my feet
C
`They say they don't like to kiss, so I ask for a hand 'round my neck
G
To feel anything at all, but we're kissing in my head
C
Is loving just how you fuck? Is it just how you get off?
C
If so, I'll lie down right here
Fmaj7
And let you just to feel loved
F
And when I'm begging for it to be over
Fmaj7 F
I imagine you say
