Intro
Fm
You've buried me here
Gm Fm
And I can't turn off my eyes, only sinking
Gm Fm
You've hidden the keys to sleep
Gm Fm
The sweet careful lines we've crossed
Gm
And now we never can go back
[Verse 1]
Fm A#
This is what I felt, just being myself
D# Cm Cm7
But I know that you wouldn't stay
Fm A#
Standing at my car with my reasons spent
D# Cm Cm7
As you drove and made your escape
Fm A#
The silence crushing me, like I swore it would
Cm
And I'm left watching...
[Chorus 1]
D# G#
Red lights fading out
(I refuse to accept these excuses you're making)
Cm Fm
As you drive back to your house
(To save yourself from taking blame the only reason that you came at all)
Fm Gm
I'm here sinking and now we never can go back
[Verse 2]
Fm A# D# Cm
I chose every word that I knew would hurt but that was a poor choice at best
Fm A# D# Cm
This weak disguise, your careless replies that you made at my expense
Fm A#
You swore this was right
Cm
It was better that you're leaving but I'm here with...
[Chorus 2]
D# G#
Red lights fading out
(I refuse to accept these excuses you're making)
Cm Fm
As you drive back to your house
(To save yourself from taking blame the only reason that you came at all)
D# G#
And I'm here with my curbside goodbye
Cm
This sting in my eyes won't leave me tonight
Fm
As I stay awake to watch the day start without you
[Bridge 1]
Fm Gm Fm
I'm here sinking, now we can never go back
Gm Fm
My foundation crippled and cracked
Gm Fm
Broken, severed, bleed out the hurt
Gm Fm
Two people dissolve into words
Gm Fm
Broken, severed, bleed out the hurt
Gm Fm
Two people dissolve into words
[Chorus 3]
D# G#
Red lights fading out
Cm Fm
As you drive back to your house
[Bridge 2]
Fm
The way I've gone a hundred times
Gm
Before but now I'm left behind
D# G#
So make all of this make sense
Fm
And now your voice is haunting me
Gm
Just out of reach it buries me
D# G#
Is this the better off that you meant?
[Bridge 3]
Fm
The way I've gone a hundred times
Gm
Before but now I'm left behind
D# G#
So make all of this make sense
Fm
And now your voice is haunting me
Gm
Just out of reach it buries me
It buries me, it buries me, it buries me, it buries me
[Outro]

Fm Gm Fm
I'm here sinking, we never can go back
Fm Gm Fm
I'm here sinking, we never can go back
Fm Gm
I'm here sinking, we never can go back
