Intro
Cm
You've buried me here
Dm Cm
And I can't turn off my eyes, only sinking
Dm Cm
You've hidden the keys to sleep
Dm Cm
The sweet careful lines we've crossed
Dm
And now we never can go back
[Verse 1]
Cm F
This is what I felt, just being myself
A# Gm Gm7
But I know that you wouldn't stay
Cm F
Standing at my car with my reasons spent
A# Gm Gm7
As you drove and made your escape
Cm F
The silence crushing me, like I swore it would
Gm
And I'm left watching...
[Chorus 1]
A# D#
Red lights fading out
(I refuse to accept these excuses you're making)
Gm Cm
As you drive back to your house
(To save yourself from taking blame the only reason that you came at all)
Cm Dm
I'm here sinking and now we never can go back
[Verse 2]
Cm F A# Gm
I chose every word that I knew would hurt but that was a poor choice at best
Cm F A# Gm
This weak disguise, your careless replies that you made at my expense
Cm F
You swore this was right
Gm
It was better that you're leaving but I'm here with...
[Chorus 2]
A# D#
Red lights fading out
(I refuse to accept these excuses you're making)
Gm Cm
As you drive back to your house
(To save yourself from taking blame the only reason that you came at all)
A# D#
And I'm here with my curbside goodbye
Gm
This sting in my eyes won't leave me tonight
Cm
As I stay awake to watch the day start without you
[Bridge 1]
Cm Dm Cm
I'm here sinking, now we can never go back
Dm Cm
My foundation crippled and cracked
Dm Cm
Broken, severed, bleed out the hurt
Dm Cm
Two people dissolve into words
Dm Cm
Broken, severed, bleed out the hurt
Dm Cm
Two people dissolve into words
[Chorus 3]
A# D#
Red lights fading out
Gm Cm
As you drive back to your house
[Bridge 2]
Cm
The way I've gone a hundred times
Dm
Before but now I'm left behind
A# D#
So make all of this make sense
Cm
And now your voice is haunting me
Dm
Just out of reach it buries me
A# D#
Is this the better off that you meant?
[Bridge 3]
Cm
The way I've gone a hundred times
Dm
Before but now I'm left behind
A# D#
So make all of this make sense
Cm
And now your voice is haunting me
Dm
Just out of reach it buries me
It buries me, it buries me, it buries me, it buries me
[Outro]
Cm Dm Cm
I'm here sinking, we never can go back
Cm Dm Cm
I'm here sinking, we never can go back
Cm Dm Cm
I'm here sinking, we never can go back
Cm Dm
I'm here sinking, we never can go back
