This life is a paradox
Dm C
You're the only one who saw the real me, yeah
F C
This love is a paradox
Dm C
You're the only thing that almost killed me
[Verse 1]
F C
Just like a desert needs a flood
Dm C
I still need your love
F C
No matter what, I'll hold my ground
Dm C
Even if I'm drowning, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]

F
It's the ones you care for
C Dm C
That will hurt you the most
F C Dm C
Nothing drops me from so high
F C Dm C
You leave me fighting for my life
[Chorus]
F C
Out of all the times I've opened up

You're the only one who saw the real me, yeah
F C
Out of all the stupid things I've done
Dm C
You're the only thing that almost killed me, yeah

This love is a paradox
Dm C
You're the only thing that almost killed me
[Verse 2]
F C
Yeah, you kiss me when I'm down
Dm C
And you suck the poison out
F C
Then you make me sick again
Dm C
'Cause you've got the medicine
[Pre-Chorus]
F C Dm C
It's just the nature of loving you, girls
F
It's the ones you fight for
C Dm C
That will conquer your world, ooh
[Chorus]

I'm bracing for the worst
Dm C
And hoping for the best
F C
Trying to make sense of
Dm F
The madness in my head
[Pre-Chorus]
F C Dm
It's the problem with keeping me close
C F
The people you hold on to
C Dm C
Are the ones who let go
[Outro]
