Bm          C            Em            D 
Shadows settle on the place that you left 
Bm             C            Em          D 
Our minds are troubled by the emptiness 
Bm          C            Em          D 
Destroy the middle it's a waste of time 
Bm               C            Em        D 
From the perfect start to the finish line 

Bm                    C                    Em      D 
And if you're still breathing, you're the lucky ones 
Bm                        C             Em         D 
'Cause most of us are heaving through corrupted lungs 
Bm          C             Em            D 
Setting fire to our insides for fun 
Bm                       C             Em           
Collecting names of the lovers that went wrong

The lovers that went wrong

We are the reckless 
Em                   D 
We are the wild youth

Chasing visions of our futures 
Bm                    C        Em  D 
One day we'll reveal the truth 
Bm                    C        Em  D 
That one will die before he gets there 

Bm                    C                    Em      D 
And if you're still bleeding, you're the lucky ones 
Bm                        C             Em              D 
'Cause most of our feelings, they are dead and they are gone 
Bm          C             Em            D 
We're setting fire to our insides for fun 
Bm                       C             Em      
Collecting pictures from the flood that wrecked our home 
                                     
D                                 Em  
It was a flood that wrecked this 

Em  C  D               Em 
      And you caused it 
Em  C  D               Em 
      And you caused it 
Em  C  D               Em 
      And you caused it 

Bm                    C                    Em      D 
Well, I've lost it all, I'm just a silouhette 
Bm                    C                    Em      D 
A lifeless face that you'll soon forget 
Bm                    C                    Em      D 
My eyes are damp from the words you left 
Bm            C              Em          D 
Ringing in my head when you broke my chest 
Bm            C              Em          D 
Ringing in my head when you broke my chest 

Bm               C                      Em     D 
And if you're in love, then you are the lucky one 
Bm               C                  Em    D 
'Cause most of us are bitter over someone. 
Bm          C        Em    D 
Setting fire to our insides for fun 
Bm                       C             Em      
To distract our hearts from ever missing them. 
D                             Em 
But I'm forever missing him 

Em  C  D               Em 
      And you caused it 
Em  C  D               Em 
      And you caused it 
Em  C  D               Em 
      And you caused it
