Song structure example
[???] [???]
I'm going under, and this time, I fear there's no one to save me Now, the day bleeds into nightfall
This all or nothing really got a way of driving me crazy And you're not here to get me through it all
I need somebody to hear, somebody to know I let my guard down and then you pulled the rug
Somebody to have, somebody to hold I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved
It's easy to say, but it's never the same
I guess I kinda liked the way you numbed all the pain [???]
And I tend to close my eyes when it hurts sometimes
[???] I fall into your arms
Now, the day bleeds into nightfall I'll be safe in your sound till I come back around
And you're not here to get me through it all
I let my guard down and then you pulled the rug [???]
I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved For now, the day bleeds into nightfall
And you're not here to get me through it all
[???] I let my guard down and then you pulled the rug
I'm going under, and this time, I fear there's no one to turn to I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved
This all or nothing way of loving got me sleeping without you But now the day bleeds into nightfall
Now, I need somebody to know, somebody to hear And you're not here to get me through it all
Somebody to have, just to know how it feels I let my guard down and then you pulled the rug
It's easy to say, but it's never the same I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved
I guess I kinda like the way you help me escape I let my guard down and then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved
