Bbm Db/Ab
I made everything come undone
Gb F
I made everything fall apart
Bbm Db/Ab
I quit running to the finishing line

Shaped just like my heart, just like my heart

I lost sight of what was under my feet
Gb F
‘Cause I always had to be on top
Bbm Db/Ab
And I was so drunk on love
Gb F
That I didn’t taste a single drop
Bbm Db/Ab
I used to make everything run on time

‘Til I made the whole world stop, I made it stop

Over the sound of rushing blood
Bbm Db/Ab
Where truth is a story scribbled in chalk

Just an hour before the flood, before the flood
[Chorus]

Now I’m watching the world move in slow motion

Now I’m finding it easy to breathe
