Bm        D        F#m
I woke up as I lay there, bleeding slow
Bm           D           F#m           E
There was no way to make all this blow over so
Bm        D           F#m
I started writing the ending, I said too much
Bm           D              F#m     E
And you just kept on pretending for both of us


D             E          Bm
I could never speak in a way
                   D       E        F#m
What you wanted to hear, I couldn't convey
E            D           E       Bm
We were just sinking too fast to say
              D          E       F#m
The two of us whispering hope away


Bm      D              F#m
All the days that I've counted, you'll never know
Bm         D             F#m       E
All that I promised you doubted, I told you so
Bm         D                  F#m
Forget the words that were spoken and thoughts erased
Bm             D             F#m       E
Let's burn the path that was chosen without a trace


D             E          Bm
I could never speak in a way
                   D       E        F#m
What you wanted to hear, I couldn't convey
E            D           E       Bm
We were just sinking too fast to say
              D          E       F#m
The two of us whispering hope away
