I know I'm not the best for you, but promise that you'll stay. 
            D 
'Cause if I watch you go, you'll see me wasting,

I'm not living this life. 

    Bm                               G 
Goodbyes are meant for lonely people standing in the rain

And no matter where I go it's always pouring all the same. 
      Bm                                    G 
These streets are filled with memories both perfect and in pain 
          D                                A

'Cause today, your words felt like a knife 
I'm not living this life. 

            A 
But what do I know, if you're leaving 
All you did was stop the bleeding. 
          Bm 
But these scars will stay forever, 
These scars will stay forever 
          A 
And these words have no meaning 
If we cannot find the feeling 
        G 
That we held on to together 
Try your hardest to remember 

D 
Stay with me, 
   A 
Or watch me bleed, 
  Bm                 G 
I need you just to breathe.

'Cause today, you walked out of my life 
(stay with me, or watch me bleed) 
         Bm                          G 
'Cause today, your words felt like a knife 
(i need you just to breathe.) 
                     D (D A Bm G D) 
I'm not living this life.
