Love Is Death

C                          Am
 I lie awake at night, dreaming of a
 time
                             Em
Where I could say the pain was worth
 it
                 G
That I didn't deserve to be treated 
so unkind
C                         Am
 You saw me crying on the fire 
escape
I locked your eyes, looked like your
        Em
 face was frozen
                      G
Like you didn't even notice me dying


[Pre-Chorus]
C                               
Oh, but even though you know I would
Am
 stay
             Em*
I'd risk my life for you
                 G*
I'd twist that knife for you


[Chorus]
          C
Love is death, love is dying
             Am
With every breath, cells dividing
             Em
I'm dying for you
               G
I'm dying for you
          C
Love is steel, a silver lining
            Am
With every tear multiplying
              Em
I'm crying for you
                     G
Yeah, I'm dying for you


[Verse 2]
Continues after the ad
C
 Blood sacrifices made
    Am                             
It's everything it takes for me to 
         Em
keep from screaming
                       G
Like a rabbit out my sleeve, it's a 
miracle I'm still breathing
C                                 
 But I have no choice, it's like 
   Am
my voice is in a box
That's buried leagues and leagues 
Em
below me
                      G
With only fishes for company


[Pre-Chorus]
C                               
Oh, but even though you know I would
Am
 stay
            Em*
I'd take my life for you
                 G*
I'd twist that knife for you


[Chorus]
         C
Love is death, love is dying
             Am
With every breath, cells dividing
             Em
I'm dying for you
               G
I'm dying for you
          C
Love is steel, a silver lining
            Am
With every tear multiplying
              Em
I'm crying for you
                     G
Yeah, I'm dying for you
                    N.C.
Yeah, I'm dying for you

I'd give my life for you
            C
Twist that knife for you

It's all, all for you


[Chorus]
         C
Love is death, love is dying
            Am
With every breath, cells dividing
             Em
I'm dying for you (I'm dying for 
you)
               G
I'm dying for you (I'm dying for 
you)
          C
Love is steel, a silver lining
            Am
With every tear multiplying
              Em
I'm crying for you (I'm crying for 
you)

Yeah, I'm dying for you
