[Verse 1]
 G           D/B             C   Csus2                   Em D/B C Csus2
Hold, your breath and lend an ear, or wait for it to break
 G         D/B                 C   Csus2                Em D/B C Csus2
We, the witness and the difference of success and of mistake
 Em            D/B               C            Csus2         Em D/B C Csus2
With just the words unwritten, spoken of the quiet is a lie
 Em            D/B               C    D/B     G   D/B G
You hold the answer but you're too afraid to try

[Verse 2]
 G           D/B             C   Csus2                   Em D/B C Csus2
Take, my hand when no one sees, to hide the plainest sight
 G           D/B             C   Csus2                   Em D/B C Csus2
We, the mixture of a certainly uncertain oversight
 Em            D/B               C            Csus2         Em D/B C Csus2
Without a word admitted, spoken out, the quiet keeps it true
 Em            D/B               C    D/B     G   D/B G
You think you're running but I'm walking next to you

[Verse 3]
 G           D/B             C   Csus2                   Em D/B C Csus2
So give, it up and let me in, your walls are in my way
 G           D/B             C   Csus2                   Em D/B C Csus2
You, the story of the only one, the one that got away
 Em            D/B               C            Csus2         Em D/B C Csus2
With just the words unspoken, covered up, the quiet is your mask
 Em            D/B               C    D/B     G   D/B G
You thought I'd never say, but you just had to ask

[Verse 4]
 G           D/B             C   Csus2                   Em D/B C Csus2
Now hold, it back and try to give, your honesty a way
 G           D/B             C   Csus2                   Em D/B C Csus2
We, defeated by this game for two, we never meant to play
 Em            D/B               C            Csus2         Em D/B C Csus2
With all the words conceded, written and the quiet left to bleed
 Em            D/B               C    D/B     G   D/B G
Your broken silence is the only truth I need
