Trying to create something

that's not there

F spark I saw as a bomb is

just a means to an end

have to keep it shut

you're not ready
A#m C#/F
Please stop acting
F/A
like you are
Chorus:
A#m Gb
How could I know
D#m
that everything you say
are lies about

devotion and desire?

And I know the spark

inside your eyes
was just the match I
F
used to set myself on fire
Post Chorus: Dm(hold)

and there's nobody guarding it

All over this lonely life

with being all alone?

Alone is the only way

I've ever known
