C        F             Am              G
Shadows settle on the place, that you left.
C               F             Am       G
Our minds are troubled by the emptiness.
C            F             Am        G
Destroy the middle, it's a waste of time.
          C        F           Am       G
From the perfect start to the finish line.

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

We are the reckless, we are the wild youth
Chasing visions of our futures
One day, we'll reveal the truth
That one will die before he gets there

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

Am F Em               Am
       And you caused it,
F  Em                 Am
       And you caused it,
F  Em                 Am
       And you caused it

Well, I've lost it all, I'm just a silhouette
I'm a lifeless face that you'll soon forget
And my eyes are damp from the words you left
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest

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

And you caused it
And you caused it
And you caused it
