Intro
F#m
You've buried me here
G#m F#m
And I can't turn off my eyes, only sinking
G#m F#m
You've hidden the keys to sleep
G#m F#m
The sweet careful lines we've crossed
G#m
And now we never can go back
[Verse 1]
F#m B
This is what I felt, just being myself
E C#m C#m7
But I know that you wouldn't stay
F#m B
Standing at my car with my reasons spent
E C#m C#m7
As you drove and made your escape
F#m B
The silence crushing me, like I swore it would
C#m
And I'm left watching...
[Chorus 1]
E A
Red lights fading out
(I refuse to accept these excuses you're making)
C#m F#m
As you drive back to your house
(To save yourself from taking blame the only reason that you came at all)
F#m G#m
I'm here sinking and now we never can go back
[Verse 2]
F#m B E C#m
I chose every word that I knew would hurt but that was a poor choice at best
F#m B E C#m
This weak disguise, your careless replies that you made at my expense
F#m B
You swore this was right
C#m
It was better that you're leaving but I'm here with...
[Chorus 2]
E A
Red lights fading out
(I refuse to accept these excuses you're making)
C#m F#m
As you drive back to your house
(To save yourself from taking blame the only reason that you came at all)
E A
And I'm here with my curbside goodbye
C#m
This sting in my eyes won't leave me tonight
F#m
As I stay awake to watch the day start without you
[Bridge 1]
F#m G#m F#m
I'm here sinking, now we can never go back
G#m F#m
My foundation crippled and cracked
G#m F#m
Broken, severed, bleed out the hurt
G#m F#m
Two people dissolve into words
G#m F#m
Broken, severed, bleed out the hurt
G#m F#m
Two people dissolve into words
[Chorus 3]
E A
Red lights fading out
C#m F#m
As you drive back to your house
[Bridge 2]
F#m
The way I've gone a hundred times
G#m
Before but now I'm left behind
E A
So make all of this make sense
F#m
And now your voice is haunting me
G#m
Just out of reach it buries me
E A
Is this the better off that you meant?
[Bridge 3]
F#m
The way I've gone a hundred times
G#m
Before but now I'm left behind
E A
So make all of this make sense
F#m
And now your voice is haunting me
G#m
Just out of reach it buries me
It buries me, it buries me, it buries me, it buries me
[Outro]
F#m G#m F#m
I'm here sinking, we never can go back
F#m G#m F#m
I'm here sinking, we never can go back
F#m G#m F#m
I'm here sinking, we never can go back
F#m G#m
I'm here sinking, we never can go back
