I Cwake up with the same pain every night

AmCall me a coGward, but I'm tooC scared to Fleave
Watched you Ampouring Glighter fluid Cout onto the Fleaves
AnCd I would've loved you with theC dying fire
Let you smother me Emdown to the embers
Frostbite turning my Amlimbs as Fblack as Ccinder of fGuneral pFyre
And CI would have stayed if you asked me to
Stood outside till my Emlips turn blue
I Emwouldn't have blamed you
For Amleaving me Fthere on the pCorch while you Gdrank gasoFline
F'cause it's what you needed so bad
And it's Ctrue
It's nothing that Emwe could do Am F C G F
