[Verse 1]
A Gbm Bm Dbm
i'm sorry but this is called a shield
A Bm Gbm Dbm A Gbm
its a tool i use to mark the distance between us because i don't know you
Bm Dbm A Bm
and so many times before even from the other injured parties
Gbm Dbm
i've been stabbed and hit and clawed at because i don't know
[Verse 2]
A Gbm
its easy to when you close your mind off
Bm Dbm A
to try and hurt and control other people
Bm
to get what you think what you want
Gbm Dbm
without even realizing what you're doing
A Gbm
that other people are also people
Bm Dbm
and not dispensers or enablers
A Bm Gbm Dbm
and it's not their obligation to please you at all
[Bridge]
A Gbm Bm Dbm x2
[Chorus]
A Gbm Bm
i can't imagine a love between two people
Dbm A Bm Gbm Dbm
that isn't anchored or isn't shackled, that isn't centered around control
A Gbm Bm
i can't imagine a love between two people
Dbm A Bm Gbm Dbm
that isn't anchored or isn't shackled, that isn't centered around control
[Verse 3]
A Gbm Bm
i'm sorry but this is called a shield
Dbm A Bm Gbm Dbm
i'm sorry if you think that you belong inside my space and i'm being mean
A Gbm Bm Dbm A Bm Gbm Dbm
that i'm being cruel by religating you to a place where you can no longer injure me again and and again
A Gbm Bm Dbm
and if i knew your name man i wouldn't hesitate to call this song that
A Bm Gbm Dbm
so all your future employers could know exactly where you stand
A
i'm not afraid
Gbm Bm
and discussing pain isn't weakness
Dbm A
and being injured isn't weakness
Bm Gbm Dbm
that's just what i'm trying to explain
[Chorus]
A Gbm Bm
i can't imagine a love between two people
Dbm A Bm Gbm Dbm
that isn't anchored or isn't shackled, that isn't centered around control
A Gbm Bm
i can't imagine a love between two people
Dbm A Bm Gbm Dbm
that isn't anchored or isn't shackled, that isn't centered around control
