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