 I used to make the
light  shine for you
 The sun has left my sky
 Velvet walls
 surround  my sorrows
 I've sacrificed my pride
Giving  up on me
 You're giving up on me
Giving  up on me
 You're giving up on me
 (Repeat)
 Post Chorus 1:
 I've laid  myself
 to sleep tonight
 I know  you've played
 out everything
 in your mind
 And now you
throw  it all  away
 A shattered memory
 that you  would stay
Through  thick
 and thin  with me
 You're giving  up on  me
 (Repeat Chorus)
 Post Chorus:
 Growl:
 I lied  myself
 to sleep tonight
 I know  you've played
 out every line
 in your mind
 And now you
throw  it all  away
 A shattered memory
 that you  would stay
Through  thick
 and thin  with me
 (Repeat Intro)
 And when you feel the pain
 I'm wishing  I could stay
 How can I say I love you back
 You never made  me happy
 Growl:
 You've laid yourself to sleep
 Sing:
 I never said  this wouldn't hurt
 Growl:
 Sm7
  You gave up everything
 Sing:
 I never said  I'd give it back
 Growl:
 I know (I know)
 You'll never change
 Sing:
 I won't be good
 enough for you
 Growl:
 I know (I know)
 you'll make it through
 Sing:
 I'll never be  around to see
 (Repeat Bridge 1)
 You're giving  up on  me
 (Repeat x3)
