[Verse 1]
F# B F#
I left thinking that I would be back
B F# C#
But I never did return
B F# C#
If you would forgive me I'd forgive myself
B C#
But forgiveness never has these terms
F# B F#
The sky was as dark as the thoughts I was thinking
B F# C#
It was ignored by the moon
B F# C#
If you would believe me I'd believe myself
B C#
But believing never comes this soon

[Verse 2]
F# B F#
The streets made a sound only my ears could hear
B F# C#
I was alone with the rats and raccoons
B F# C#
And your memory keeping me alive
B C#
As the clouds moved away from the moon
F# B F#
Then silence it hit me is a way to speak clearly
B F# C#
B way to never say what you don't mean
B F# C#
But silence is useless in cases of torture
B C#
It just says God won't intervene
F# B C# B F# B C#

[Verse 3]
F# B F#
And this night like others is a sign for the way
B F# C#
That the gray air speaks for the dead
B F# C#
The air is as vague as the thoughts I have now
B C#
That these memories are just in your head
F# B F#
So I kept walking through the clouds that were lifting
B F# C#
To reveal what I'd thought
B F# C#
There was more fog behind the mist that seemed was the only
B C#
Thing keeping me from what I sought
