    For everyone wondering what the tuning is:
    Both E's go to a D
    the G goes to a F#
    the B goes to an A

    What have I done
    With my heart on the floor
    I must be out of my mind
    To come back begging for more
    But if you stay
    And if you just stay for the night
    Swear that I'm yours
    And I'll prove that I'm right
    And these flies kept me sleeping
    For my fear's on their wings
    And your grandfather clock is still ticking
    But the chime never rings
    And how long must I stay
    Will I lay by your side
    Just to say that I'm yours
    Oh, and you'll never be mine
    With this love like a hole
    Swallowed my soul
    Dragging me down
    There's blood on the covers
    From curses we uttered
    To each other
    You played your part in this
    Oh, I played hide-and-go-seek
    Safe behind your veneer
    Does it bury your burden baby
    Makes it all disappear
    But those marks on your thighs
    Don't they sting when you bleed
    It's the way that you are
    And the way I'll forever be
    When this love like a hole
    Swallowed my soul
    Dragging me down
    There's blood on the covers
    From curses we uttered
    To each other
    You played your part
    When this love like a hole
    Swallowed my soul
    Dragging me down
    And I swear I'll stay with you
    But I just can't forgive you
    And I'll never be whole again
