You look into forever, fingertip bruises on your soul spread and take hold
D                                                                   G
and although the nails dig deeper no one sees depressions on your skin
                   Bm    A
or hears you struggling

     G                D                   Bm                Bm  A  G
But time will always heal and leave the scars that make us who we are
     G         D               Bm
so dry yours eyes and you may find the
         A                          A
deepest dark comes just before the dawn

Chorus:
              D                     G
When you're alone, with no hand to hold
          Em                    D        A
and you feel just like you're chasing shadows
                D                G
when you're so low, and feeling lost
            Em                 D              A
though it seems so dark, the night can never last

forever

    D                                          G                D
A smile to cut the silence, as conversation dwindles and eyes flicker
   D                                                  G
their gaze it settles lamely, anywhere but at your throat
                  Bm   A
as you begin to choke

     G                D                   Bm                Bm  A  G

deepest dark comes just before the dawn

              D                     G
When you're alone, with no hand to hold

and you feel just like you're chasing shadows

when you're so low, and feeling lost
