Verse 1:
I see the sl[G]slashes on your legs
And the sm[G]smile on your face a[Em]again
Blood is d[G]drying on your fingernails
Laughing a[G]at something that I sa[Em]said
Were you still sit[G]still sitting 'hind the stairs
With the ne[G]new boy in your hair when I[Em]hair when I left?
You seem to r[G]to recognize my face
But my [G]hands feel like somebody e[Em]else's

[Em] I blanked last night when you told me t[G]twice
I blanked last night when you told me
[Em] I blanked last night when you told me twice
Verse 2:
You cut your h[G]hair off with a blade
Didn't want a[G]a single trace, that poor g[Em]girl
The water c[G]couldn't get you clean
So you bur[G]burned your skin instead with the cu[Em]curl -You live in your hell-
I watched an an[G]angel cut the sky
Feathers plu[G]plucked from flight -Just to torture yourself-
And she s[G]sunk right through the ground
From c[G]colossal heights -Tell me, what could I do?-
When she cr[G]cried out for my name
I di[G]didn't hesitate -The moment when the flies fell-
I screamed, "I can[G]cannot be your saint
I know you can't be sa[Em]saved"
Chorus:
[G] I blanked last night when you told me
[Em] I blanked last night when you told me tw[G]twice
I blanked last night when you told me

[G] I blanked last night when you told me
[Em] I blanked last night when you told me tw[G]twice
I blanked last night when you told me
[Em] I blanked last night when you told me twice
