When I left I thought I would be stronger

Beyond the gates of this purgatory

I am so tainted now, I cannot wash you off

The memories still don't seem to fade
G minorGm A augmentedA
When I left, did you even wash your tears?

'Cause mine have been dryin' for days

Somethin' in the way

Can't stand the rain
DmDm
Time to move on anyway

Don't ask me why

I'm gone

I had been tryin' for days
