Bb Eb
Two young hearts in a cage tacked up on my wall

but they're hard to look at now

The clocks ticking omens but I read them wrong

we made it through another bad year somehow
F Bb
Black and white smile shines down on me
Eb
I can't help myself from laughing
F Bb
Flashing like cheap bright neon dreams
Eb F
Of haunted days nowhere born and raised
Verse 1
Bb Eb
I remember you with your shoulders draped in my jacket
Bb Eb
hanging off the edge of the party looking straight down at the street
Bb Eb
You were always in the mood to pick up another bad habit
Bb Eb
Give me that cigarette smile keep me staring at my feet.

Do you think that I could come around The way I used to do
F
I'll be your loser your creep, your liar, your cheat,
Bb Eb
your king of self abuse.

You were such a righteous, righteous, righteous, rocking desparate child.

some place they'd see the art in a fucking mess like me

Call your bluffs, salt your wounds
