 The silence comes back round again
     D                          C
 An emptiness where once were flames
         Em
 When I fell upon your shoulders like the rain
      D                                 Am
 You held me down to drown beneath the waves
C           D
 It's over, almost over
C                         D
 This kind of passion can only end in pain


                   E
 Like a crown of thorns
 Bm                                Am
 I can't wear this love around my heart
                C                   D               E
 Though we've tried and failed a thousand times to lift the dark
    Bm                                Am
 I wear the memories you leave like scars
           C            D
 I don't know if I can keep on breathing
 Am       D         Am       D        E
 If I'm bleeding, bleeding from the start


 E      Bm      C      D


Em
 I feel that every time I breathe
     D                    C
 The oxygen is suffocating me
Em
 It's not a sacrifice we can make
     D                            Am
 To be the king and queen of heartache
C           D
 It's over, almost over


                   E
 Like a crown of thorns
 Bm                                Am
 I can't wear this love around my heart

 Though we've tried and failed a thousand times to lift the dark

 I wear the memories you leave like scars
           C            D
 I don't know if I can keep on breathing
 Am       D         Am       D        E
 If I'm bleeding, bleeding from the start


 E      Bm      C      D


D
 Parting is a sweet sorrow
          Em         C
 But the marks only fade with time
D                         Em         C
 I believe that there is life on the other side
Am          D
 It's over, almost over


                   E
 Like a crown of thorns
 Bm                                Am
 I can't wear this love around my heart
                C                   D               E
 Though we've tried and failed a thousand times to lift the dark
    Bm                                Am
 I wear the memories you leave like scars
           C            D
 I don't know if I can keep on breathing
 Am       D         Am       D
