[Verse 1]
D Bm Asus A
Wake of a whisper thirteen years unspoken past
D Bm Asus A
Silhouettes at the table in the candle's shadow cast
D Bm Asus A
The muse and the mystery lost and neither still remain
D Bm Asus A
The specter of tragedy ever lingers like a stain
[Pre-chorus]
G A Bm
And regret is the rule of the day
G A Bm
all the things they’ve forgotten to say
G A Bm Em
so they chose not to start as they drifted apart
G A D
while the innocence melted away
[Chorus]
Dm Bbsus2 F C A
And its a long way down when the promise is already gone
Dm Bbsus2 F
all the dreams we’ve founded have faded with time
G A
and its time to move on
Dm Bbsus2 F G A Bbsus2
Here surrounded too proud to give up but too tired to carry you home
C9 D
Run away to be free...
[Verse 2]
D Bm Asus A
Shell of a memory from an artificial life
D Bm Asus A
Match sticks and ashes only figures marking time
D Bm Asus A
He just stares out the window, scars of vacant eyes
D Bm Asus A
Gripped by the haunting and the loss he kept inside
[Pre-chorus]
G A Bm
So she carries the weight of the world
G A Bm
and she buries the dreams of a girl
G A Bm Em
and she wonders if time will be aging like wine
G A D
Or the pain that created the pearl
[Chorus]
Dm Bbsus2 F C A
And its a long way down when the promise is already gone
Dm Bbsus2 F
all the dreams we’ve founded have faded with time
G A
and its time to move on
Dm Bbsus2 F G A Bbsus2
Here surrounded too proud to give up but too tired to carry you home
C9 D
Run away to be free...
