Your locks were made to break

I'd rather die a thousand deaths anyway 


 
      G          D 
I can run, I can fly

You can kiss this thing goodbye

Was never meant for me

You never tried to take my breath away 
     C       D 
You lost anyway 



G           D                  C 
I was at my best, believed in you 
                  D 
That was my worst mistake 
G             D  
So obsessive, too possessive 
C             D 
You'll never change
