 Dm  
weep for yourself, my man
                           F
you'll never be what is in your heart
Dm
weep little lion man
                                   F
you're not as brave as you were at the start
C               
rate yourself and rape yourself
Bb                            F
take all the courage you have left
C                     
wasted on fixing all the
Bb                                 F
problems that you made in your own head
 Dm             Bb             F
but it was not your fault but mine
Dm             Bb             F
and it was your heart on the line
Dm             Bb             F
i really fucked it up this time
          C
didn't I, my dear?
 Dm
tremble for yourself, my man
                                       F
you know that you have seen this all before
Dm
tremble little lion man
                                F
you'll never settle any of your scores
C                    
your grace is wasted in your face
     Bb                              F
your boldness stands alone among the wreck
C      
learn from your mother or else
Bb                              F
spend your days biting your own neck 
Dm             Bb             F
but it was not your fault but mine
Dm             Bb             F
and it was your heart on the line
Dm             Bb             F
I really fucked it up this time         
C
didn't I, my dear?
