Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]If I'm frightened then I can hide it
If I'm crying, I'll call it laughter
If I am haunted,
I'll call it my imaginary friend
If I am bleeding I'll call it wine

[Verse 2]
But if you leave me [C]then I am broken
And If I'm broken then only death remains

[Verse 3]
[C]If I am drifting, then I can fight it
If I am sinking, no- one will know it
If I am blinded I'll have my voices
to guide me
If they yet fled away
I'd bless the silence

[Verse 4]
But if you leave [C]me then I'm broken

[Outro 1]
And If I'm broken then only death remains
[C]
