You loved to climb so I tried to become an evergreen
      C                C          Em       Em
To shade you from the sun was our routine
    G                    G                F
My leaves grew lush. I chased the rush of that sweet 
     F
dopamine

In wintertime, you started to want more

  F
before

Everyone else could read ahead and see

That this is what the ending was always going to be

I can’t believe I ever thought that you loved me for me
      Am           G      G     Am
When all you ever wanted was a giving tree

I worshiped every white lie and excuse
    G                 G            F
Convinced that I was safer with a truce than with the 
 F
truth
    C              C         Em     Em
I didn’t know the meaning of abuse

Getting watered just enough so that you could eat 
      F
more fruit

We fought with ourselves and each other.
   G                G      F                 F
Debated who between us had been the better lover.
C              C         Em     Em
Maybe all that work was just another
        G               G    F                F
Urge to be that giving tree that I ought to smother.

Everyone else could read ahead and see

That this is what the ending was always going to be

    waiting to forget

It seems easier than learning to

forgive your debt

VERSE 6
C      Am               G         F
Was it wisdom when I refused to regret
            C         F      
Or was that just naivete from having

barely         lived yet?
