all i am

Verse: B Asus2 E F#
PreChorus: G#m E G#m F#
Chorus: B F# G#m (F#) E

the years wore through us both together
words, it seems, don’t make good seams
like thin and cheap imitation leather
tearing away from this old routine

now I keep trying to forget what you said
but not how you said it

retracing every letter you sent
’til I can finally admit;

I’ve got these pieces
pieces that don’t go
with all the other pieces
pieces that I know.

tried holding on by a thin tether
this, it seems, was our final scene
guess I just wasn’t enough for her,
so here I am, unredeemed

now I keep trying to forget what you said
but not how you said it

retracing every letter you sent
until I can finally admit;

I’ve got these pieces
pieces that don’t go
with all the other pieces
pieces that I know.
