Tone: [F]
Verse 1:
[F]My love, you love your time machine,
your power trips and diamond rings.
[Dm7]The walls you built on teenage dreams.
The well you dug for sinking things.
[Csus4]Your words to kill our evergreen,
so you must not feel anything at all.
Interlude:
[Bb]
Verse 2:
[F]But how'd you get so bulletproof?
You trade your time for inside truth.
[Dm7]You trade your time for any clue for what
to do or not to do.
[Csus4]I hate to say it's nothing new,
Aside from those few girls you keep around
Interlude:
[Bb]
Chorus:
[F]But, How will it end?
How long will you give me
[Dm7]'till you twist the knive
and smile while you kill me.
[Csus4]And you ask me to dance
if there's someone around.
[Bb]You don't look the same
when I look at you now.
Interlude:
[F] [Dm7] [Csus4] [Bb]
Verse 3:
[F]Oh honey pie you're haunting me.
I fell for your faux fantasy.
[Dm7]You poured the wine there’s poison in it.
You disregard my disposition.
[Csus4]Truth is in the subtle things
Your eggshell floor, It’s splintering now.
Interlude:
[Bb]
Verse 4:
[F]And it freaks me out, I'm old enough.
To know you as a gateway drug.
[Dm7]You're everything l'll never be.
You love to look for enemies.
[Csus4]I have to bet that's lonely.
Could leave you with an empty house.
Interlude:
[Bb]
Chorus:
[F]How will it end?
How long will you give me
[Dm7]'till you twist the knife
and smile while you kill me.
[Csus4]And you ask me to dance
if there's someone around.
[Bb]You don't look the same
when I look at you now.
[F]I used to pretend that it didn't feel evil.
[Dm7]Your light of a million suns
burns through people
[Csus4]and Bridges and cities till
ash covers ground.
[Bb]a breath of your air is a death wish.
[F]And you're forcing my hand
but I'm a drop in your ocean.
[Dm7]I ruined your plans of some
grand self-promotion,
[Csus4]the second you figured
that I figured you out.
[Bb]Now you look away when I look at you now.
Outro:
[F]Oh look at you now.
[Dm7]Oh look at you.
[Csus4]Look at you.

[Bb]
