Verse 1:
C#
I settled down
A twisted up frown
Fm
Disguised as a smile well
Eb
You would have never known
You would have never known
Fm
I have it all
But not when I wanted
'Cause over me was a
place uncharted
Eb
And overgrown
Refrain 1:
G#
You make your way in
Eb
I resist you just like this
Fm
You can't tell me to feel
G#
The truth never set me
C#(hold)
free So I did it myself
Chorus 1:
C#
You can't be too careful anymore
Bbm
When all that is waiting for you
C#
Won't come any closer
Eb
You've got to reach a little
Eb
more More More More More
Interlude: Fm--G#-Bbm-Fm--Bbm-Eb-
Verse 2:
C#
Open your eyes
Like I opened mine
Fm
It's only the real world
Eb
Life you will never know
Fm
Shifting your way
To throw off the pain
Well you can ignore it
Eb
But only for so long
Refrain 2:
G#
You look like I did
Eb
You resist me just like this
Fm
You can't tell me to heal
G#
And it hurts remembering
C#(hold)
How it felt to shut down
(Repeat Chorus 1)
