Standard (EADGBE)

When I look you in the lies,

Something deep inside me dies,

'cause I know you won’t get better, better, better

You'd rather be right than be loved,

The only thing I understood

Nothing's ever good enough.

I stumble through the words as they're leaving me,

Tremble at the sight of Your Majesty,

And I cut myself just to get them out.

This time will be different, I promise you,

This time I'll be special, you know I will,

Just don't leave with me in your eyes.

This time I'll be better, I want you to know,

This time I'll be special, oh God, make it so,

Just don't leave with me in your eyes, your eyes, your eyes…

You took my youth, you took my health,

And if you're not here I fight myself

You're supposed to make this better, better, better

No self-control and no reason why,

And if I don't change, then we both die,

This is it for you and I.

Blisters at the end of my fingertips,

Praying to a god I don't think exist

Will you listen now

Can you forgive me somehow

This time will be different, I promise you,

This time I'll be special, you know I will,

Just don't leave with me in your eyes.

This time I'll be better, I want you to know,

This time I'll be special, oh God, make it so,

Just don't leave with me in your eyes, your eyes, your eyes…

Closer now to the end,

If love was the answer,

Then hope was the question

Closer now, let’s pretend

We've never been out here before.

This time will be different, I promise you,

This time I'll be special, you know I will,

Just don't leave with me in your eyes.

This time I'll be better, I want you to know,

This time I'll be special, oh God, make it so,

Just don't leave with me in your eyes, your eyes, your eyes
