Time is running out as you die, die, die in this bed not making a sound.
AmEmGDmEmG
It has all come crashing down to be here, and watch you breathe your last.
DmCadd9Em
So helpless to stop you from slipping away so fast.
Cadd9
Oh, God, are you listening now?
AmCadd9
As this cancer dances through her, and then takes a bow.
AmEmG
It won't disappoint the crowd,
DmEm
whose words are a curse,
GDm
as I hear them one-by-one.
Cadd9Em
Please pull the string, and I come undone.
AmDmCadd9EmAm
I know this. I failed to say. I'm sinking by your side.
DmCadd9EmAm
You're worth this. I wouldn't trade a day to not have gone through this
DmCadd9
So many days I've been blind.
EmAm
I want to stop and rewind.
DmGCadd9
Kick off our shoes and dance with the ghost of you.
AmCadd9
Who could tease me and leave me begging for the abuse?
AmEmGDmEmG
You're the only one I knew that could tame me, and make me who I am.
DmCadd9Em
But now, there's self-blaming and there's nothing left of all my plans.
AmDmCadd9EmAm
I know this. I failed to say. I'm sinking by your side.
DmCadd9EmAm
You're worth this. I wouldn't trade a day to not have gone through this
DmCadd9
So many days I've been blind.
EmAm
I want to stop and rewind.
DmG
Kick off our shoes and dance...
G
Let's dance again.
G
We'll turn up our sleeves.
Cadd9Am
I know just where to begin.
GCadd9
Dance, let's dance again.
DmEmGAmDmEmGAm
We could find ourselves before this happens...
AmCadd9
These words of mine are trite and so cliche.
AmCadd9
Still we find a place in everything.
AmCadd9EmG
It's just to break the silence that has been crushing me.
AmCadd9
Half of me is dead, already gone.
AmCadd9
Half is screaming everyone is wrong.
AmCadd9EmCadd9
Finally asking now, will you just hear me out?
DmAm
This was all my fault.
Cadd9DmGEm
You brought me death, and it's everything I wanted.
AmDmG
It's the wrong side of fear that kept me out.
