Verse 1: C#m D#mb5 Dead stars in jewelry boxes spill as we rush past them, lain to waste E We can't have everything we want, some things will have to stay N.C. There is no beauty in the fire but there is beauty in the D#mb5 way your eyes locked willingly with death and death turned trembling away C#m Like ice on passing comets we move coldly, D#mb5 F#m soundless, through it all but in the wordless space between us there is something like a song E Each note exists within the silence, our hearts were moving it along D#mb5 You sing the melody so perfect, I can only get it wrong
Chorus: C#m B So I beg, just make the silence stop (it's exposed too much) A E I think I've had enough (time to let it go) C#m B A D#mb5 It's always quiet and that was the sound of us (and it's killing me, I'm close to giving up) Verse 2: C#m D#mb5 An hourglass is spinning, tumbling right past me through the room E Gravity long since gone, now an airless tomb D#mb5 The song that lived between us: here but out of tune C#m The grains of sand escape the glass, each one paler than the moon A Entire planets empty with only dust and rocks to find F#m You escaped from here, leaving this behind E You found an enemy in sorrow; I made a lover out of mine D#mb5 And now I'm running out of air and Iâm begging Chorus: C#m B just make the silence stop (it's exposed too much) A E I think I've had enough (time to let it go) C#m B A D#mb5 It's always quiet and that was the sound of us (and it's killing me, I'm close to giving up) Bridge: C#m G#/C What am I to say? C#m G#/C We've been growing apart Verse 3: C#m D#mb5 My infatuation with you began to slip into the void E I watched it drift into the cosmos as anguish plagued my mind D#mb5 As we began to mirror all the space between the stars, I couldn't take the static C#m I needed something more Bridge 2: A C#m B A E It wasnât easy finding something to live for, hearing your voice inside of every sound C#m A C#m B A E I saw a part of you in everything, took a moment to breathe, then let it run out Chorus: C#m B just make the silence stop (it's exposed too much) A E I think I've had enough (time to let it go) C#m B A D#mb5
