Key: F
Introduction:
Cm7 Eb7M
From morning to night I stayed out of sight
Bb7M F
Didn't recognize I'd become
Cm7 Eb7M
No more than alive I'd barely survive
Bb7M F
In a word...overrun
Gm F
Won't hear a sound from my mouth
Gm F
I've spent too long on the inside out
Gm F
My skin is cold to the human touch
Gm F
This bleeding heart's not beating much
Cm7 Eb7M
I murmured a vow of silence and now
Bb7M F
I don't even hear when I think aloud
Cm7 Eb7M
Extinguished by light I turn on the night
Bb7M F
Wear its darkness with an empty smile
Fm
I'm creeping back to life
G4 G
My nervous system all awry
Ab Bb
I'm wearing the inside out
Cm7 Eb7M
Look at him now, he's paler somehow
Bb7M F
But he's coming around
Cm7 Eb7M
He's starting to choke, it's been so long since he spoke
Bb7M F
Well he can have the words right from my mouth
Gm F
And with these words I can see
Gm F
Clear through the clouds that covered me
Gm F
Just give it time then speak my name
Gm F
Now we can hear ourselves again
Gm F
I'm holding out for the day
Gm F
When all these clouds have blown away
Gm F
I'm with you now, can speak your name
Gm F
Now we can hear ourselves again
