[Intro 1]
[D][Gsus2][D][G][Gsus2][D][Gsus2][D][Bm]
[Gsus2][D]

[Verse 1]
Is there ever really a [D]right time
You [Bm]had led me to believe
Someday [Gsus2]you'd be there for me[D]

[Verse 2]
When the stars [D]above aligned
[Bm]When you weren't so consumed
[D]I kept look[Gsus2]ing for the c[D]lues
[Em]So I waited

[Verse 3]
in [A]the shad
ows of my heart
[Em]And still the time was
never [A]right[Asus4][A]

[Verse 4]
Until [D]one day I stopped [G]caring[Gsus2][G][A]
[G]And [D]began to forget why I
[A]longed to be so close
And I [D]dis[A]appeared into the [Bm]darkness
And the [Em]darkness turned to pain
And [Bm]never went away
Until [Em]all that remained
Was [G]buried [Gsus2]deep bene[G]ath the [Asus4]surface[A][D]

[Interlude 1]
[D][Gsus2][G][Gsus2]
[D][Gsus2][G][Gsus2][D][Gsus2][G][A][Asus4][D][Bm][G][D]

[Verse 5]
A shell of [D]what things could have been

[Verse 6]
[D]
[A]Tired [Bm]bones beneath a veil
Of [A]guarded [G]secrets all too [A]frail[D]
Sad to think I never knew
You were [Bm]searching for the words
For the mo[G]ment to emerge
[D][Bm]

[Verse 7]
[Em]
Yet the moment never [A]came[D][Em]
You couldn't risk my fragile
frame
[Asus4]

[Verse 8]
[A]
Until [D]one day you stopped [Gsus2]caring[G]
And [D]began to forget why
[A]you tried to be so close
And you [D]dis[A]appeared
into [Bm]the darkness
And [Em]the darkness turned to pain
And never [Bm]went away
Until [Em]all that remained
Was bur[G]ied deep [Asus4]beneath t[A]he surface
[F#m]

[Interlude 2]
[G][D][A]
[F#m][G][D][A]
[F#m]

[Verse 9]
I would [F#m]scream just to be [G]heard
As if yelling at the [D]stars
I was bleeding just to feel
[A][Asus4][A]

[Verse 10]
[F#m]
You would never say a [G]word
Kept me reaching in the [D]dark
Always something to con[A]ceal[Asus4]
[A]

[Verse 11]
Until [D]one day [A]I stopped
[G]caring[Dsus4]
[D]And began to forget why
[A]I longed to be so close
And I dis[D]appeared [A]into
[Bm]the darkness
And [A]the [Em]darkness turned to pain
And [Bm]never went away
Until [Em]all that remained
Was [G]buried deep [Asus4]beneath t[A]he sur
[D]face
