[F]Closed off from love, I didn’t need the [Dm]pain
[Dm]Once or twice was enough, and it was all in [Bb]vain
[Bb]Time starts to pass, before you know it you’re [C]frozen


[F]But something happened for the very first time with [Dm]you
[Dm]My heart melts into the ground, found something [Bb]true
[Bb]And everyone’s looking round, thinking I’m going [C]crazy


[F]But I don’t care what they say, I’m in love with [Dm]you
[Dm]They try to pull me away, but they don’t know the [Bb]truth
[Bb]My heart’s crippled by the vein that I keep on [C]closing
[C]You cut me open and I,


[F]Keep bleeding, keep, keep bleeding [Dm]love
[Dm]I keep bleeding, I keep, keep bleeding love
[Bb]Keep bleeding, keep, keep bleeding [C]love
[C]You cut me open [F]mmm


[F]Trying hard not to hear, but they talk so [Dm]loud
[Dm]Their piercing sounds fill my ears, try to fill me with [Bb]doubt
[Bb]Yet I know that the goal is to keep me from [C]falling


[F]But nothing’s greater than the rush that comes with your em[Dm]brace
And in this world of loneliness I see your [Bb]face
[Bb]Yet everyone around me thinks that I’m going [C]crazy, maybe, maybe


[F]But I don’t care what they say, I’m in love with [Dm]you
[Dm]They try to pull me away, but they don’t know the [Bb]truth
[Bb]My heart’s crippled by the vein that I keep on [C]closing
[C]You cut me open and I,


[F]Keep bleeding, keep, keep bleeding [Dm]love
[Dm]I keep bleeding, I keep, keep bleeding [Bb]love
[Bb]Keep bleeding, keep, keep bleeding [C]love
[C]You cut me open


[Dm]And it’s draining all of [Bb]me
[Bb]Oh they find it hard to be[F]lieve
[F]I’ll be wearing these scars for [C]everyone to see


[Dm]But I don’t care what they say, I’m in love with [Bb]you
[Bb]They try to pull me away, but they don’t know the [C]truth
[C]My heart’s crippled by the vein that I keep on closing
[C]You cut me open and I,


[Dm]Keep bleeding, keep, keep bleeding [Bb]love
[Bb]I keep bleeding, I keep, keep bleeding [C]love
[C]Keep bleeding, [F]keep, keep bleeding [C]love
[C]You cut me open and [Dm]I


[Dm]Keep bleeding, [Bb]keep, keep bleeding [F]love
