C Am7 Em7 C
[Verso 1]
C Am7 C/E Fmaj7
I poured my self into a letter I fell onto a page
C Am7
When you read that letter
C/E Fmaj7
I don't think my point was made
C Am7 C/E Fmaj7
Lost like a necklace that hide under my bed
C Am7 C/E Fmaj7
And the t-shirt that you gave me still sits in my drawer
C Am7 C/E Fmaj7
I re-read my letter while your undressing her

Shatter me like glass

Stab me with the pieces of myself I gave to you

Watch the red run down my back as if

Mines like a rock and there's shines just like the sun

Watch the red run down my back as if

That the t-shirt that I gave you is stuck on her
C Am7 Em7 Fmaj7
And the people that I trust will test there luck

And I'm the only one who's drowning
