Intro:
It was on our wedding day
When my heart began to stray
Never thought I'd make
such a big mistake
Throw my life away
Verse 1: beat swtiched from standard 4/4 to 3/4
I've gone days without food
I've went weeks without
sleep Keeping this in
I've got cuts I can't close
I've got wounds that won't
heal It's all your fault
I've been shattered and wrecked
My hands covered in blood
Scars on my skin
I forgot how to feel
Now I'm weak with deceit
My skin is paper thin
Chorus:
We get through this
Feeling it keeping
it holding it in
We go through this
Over and over again
Verse 2:
Sing:
I'd go years without tears
In a life with no fear
A life without you
Now I'm breaking my back
as I cover my tracks
My skin is paper thin
Growl:
once again
(Repeat Chorus)
Verse 3:
I've gone days without food
I've went weeks without
sleep Keeping this in
I've got cuts I can't close
I've got wounds that won't
heal It's all your fault
Bridge:
Sing:
My American dream
Wasn't ever to
Growl:
lie and steal and cheat
Sing:
He won't leave
her for this
What's the point?
Growl:
(I wish they would die)
(Repeat Chorus twice)
Outro:
Growl:
This was not a test
This was all for real
(Repeat x3)
This was not a test
B Ebm(hold)
This was all for real
