F#m Bm F#m G
These tears I cry for you must prove that I'm not the demon that I'm meant to be

[Verse 3]
Bm A G
Why would you ask? Why should you care how I'm doing?
Bm A D G
Do I bother you with those kinds of vapid questions anymore?
Bm A G
I wanna matter, I wanna be your friend, not a poison
Bm A D G
This kind of love, our kind of love is so demoralizing
