Smear

lyrics

2nd capo.
C, E, Am, G, F
I never knew I was addicted to anything
Until I felt the steel against my fingertips
And the callouses grew and made me only want more.
I've been playing this guitar for years
And I've never been more scared of anything else
Besides never being able to play again.
I never thought I'd fall in love again
Until I dealt with you face to face
And my feelings grew and only made me realize that I can't live without you
In my life
And I've been avoiding these feelings for weeks
And I've never been more scared of anything else
Besides never kissing your face again.

Am, E, G, F
But fuck, what did I do wrong?
How can I fix this all along?
I didn't mean to end things
But now I barely play these strings
And j feel miserable at worst
And I can't fix that again.

Please understand that I grew an addiction that was healthy
And I threw it all away
Because my passions didn't make money
And I just couldn't stay
In this town for any longer
Because my fears only grew larger
And I became nothing but insecure.


C, E, Am, F
I guess we want what we can't have
And now all I want is to play music again.

Am, G, C, G, F
And I hope you hear this one day
And I hope you'll be my girlfriend again
But I guess you're done with me and all of my shit
And I just have to get over it.
So I'll write more songs that I'll probably regret
Because the last time I realized that I had a muse
For playing these things was when I was around you.

But fuck, what did I do wrong?
How can I fix this all along?
I didn't mean to end things
But now I barely play these strings
And j feel miserable at worst
And I can't fix that again.
