Bm G
You know, I'm sorry
D
I won't make it to your party
Bm G
Got caught up in my own selfishness
D
It won't let me be a part of this
Bm G
And I know I've started
D
Drifting off every second
Bm G D
I can't wait to leave as soon as I arrive
I count the seconds
Bm G D
Down and down we go
Bm G D
We'll torch this place we know
Bm G D
Before one of us takes a chance
Bm7 G A Bm
And breaks this, I won't be the one
G A D
No, I won't be the one
Bm G
I know it's pathetic
D
Fuck it, yeah, I said it
Bm G
Tried to tell it like it is
D
There's a chance that I'll regret it, so
Bm G
Let's go, let's end this
D
I delete before I send it
Bm G
And we can play pretend
D
Like we haven't reached the end yet
Bm G D
Down and down we go
Bm G D
We'll torch this place we know
Bm G D
Before one of us takes a chance
Bm7 G A Bm
And breaks this, I won't be the one
G A D
No, I won't be the one
