🎤 Sing along

Sing with the chorus

  • 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 was getting kinda used to being someone you loved

Sing it again — final chorus

  • 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 was getting kinda used to being someone you loved
