Regret chords by Anathema

Em
As I drift away... far away from you,
Em
I feel all alone in a crowded room,
F
Thinking to myself
      Dm
"There's no escape from this
F
fear
regret
Dm
loneliness..."

Am
Visions of love and hate
            Dm
A collage behind my eyes
Am
Remnants of dying laughter
           Dm
Echoes of silent cries

Am
I wish I didn't know now that
    Em
I never knew then...
Am
Flashback
          Em
Memories punish me once again
F
Sometimes I remember all the pain
Dm
that I have seen.
Dm
Sometimes I wonder what might
have been...

Visions of love and hate
A collage behind my eyes
Remnants of dying laughter
Echoes of silent cries

Am
And sometimes I despair
      Dm
At who I've become
Am
I have to come to terms
        Dm
With what I've done

Am
The bittersweet taste of fate
          Dm
We can't outrun the past
Am
Destined to find an answer
          Dm
A strength I never lost
F
I know there is a way,
G
My future is not set,
F
For the tide has turned
Em
But still I never learned to live
      Am
