Introduction: Dm Am C F Dm Am C Cm G
Dm Am
Like cracks in the twilight, more darkness pushing through,
C CM F
through and through to me you.
Dm Am
And the streets are no longer the streets that I remember
Cm G
bridges burned in front me and bridges were but embers.
Dm Am
And the rain starts to pour and the wounds they start to ooze,
Cm F
tightening with the memories if you blink you know you lose
Dm Am
And I will reap what I sow, the dawns that never come
Cm Em G
a night that never dawns a thousand setting suns.
Dm Am
There's salt in the wound, the years that won't come back,
Cm F
the past is in front me and the lovers dressed in black.
Dm Am
The wells are all dried up, the crops are burned and bare,
Cm G
this city's full of children with hope and vacant stares.
F Am
There's nothing for me here, nothing for me here,
G F
nothing but despair I feel it in the air.
Am G
Nothing for me here I sit In endless stare nothing for me here.
Dm Am
Was there love or was there life? A soulless birch no heart of mine.
E F
the hunt is on the dogs are loose, your lovely words for a lovely ruse
Dm Am
the end is nigh, and slow goodbye, these empty hands my heart on fire,
Cm G
a Judas kiss the kiss of death, a goodbye kiss at the very best.
Dm Am
A coup de grâ ce from a lovers hands, a final fuss no second chance,
Cm F
this ship has sailed and no return, a broken home no lesson learned.
Dm Am
And the tears are no longer, the tears that I remember,
Cm G
tears that dreamt of scars scars that always linger.
Dm Am
The love is no longer the love that I remember,
Cm F
choked and gone and smothered, lost in time forever.
Dm Am
flicking through the pages of a solitary life,
Cm G
a hand on my shoulder or just another knife?
F Am
There's nothing for me here, nothing for me here,
G F
nothing but despair I feel it in the air.
Am G
Nothing for me here, I sit In endless stare,
F
nothing for me here, nothing but despair.
Am G
Did you really care? My heart lay bare,
F
nothing for me here, I can't breathe the air.
Am G
Nothing for me I sit In endless stare, nothing for me here.
