[Verse 1]
[C]Here [Em]you stand seething with g[C]uilt.
Silence only justi[G]fies [F]this [Em]act
[C]of [Am]cowar[C]di[F]ce.[Em]
The [F]look stapled [Am]on yo[Dm]ur face[C]
[G]cries [Am]out [F]for forg[Em]iven[G]ess,
[Am]The [Dm]one t[C]hing[Em] that [G]I canno[Em]t
give you.
(Did you ever [C]see that

[Verse 2]
one per[Em]son
And the [C]way they do these thing[Em]s
And it [C]hurts [Em]so much it's like

[Verse 3]
choking.. choking?)
[Em]I can [C]give you freedom
from [D]your guilt,
[Em]With a flick of [C]my wrist onto [Dm]yours.
[Em]I can give you [C]peace of mind
with a forced [Dm]smile.
[Em]I can give you [C]death

[Verse 4]
with the
look upon [Dm]my f[D]ace.
[Em]This is your

[Verse 5]
freedom in a [C]life of [G]fallacy,
With [Em]no last kiss [C]& no
regrets;
You don't deserve [G]good bye.
[Em]This is your freedom [C]in a life of fallacy,
[G]With no [Em]last kiss & no goo[C]d bye[G].

[Verse 6]
[C]Here [G]you stand [Em]seething with [C]guilt.
[Am]Silence [Dm]only [C]jus[G]tifies[Am]
[F]this [Em]act o[C]f [Am]cowar[C]dice.
[F][Em][Am][Dm][C][F][Am][F][Am]
[F]With[Am][F]
[Am]a sh[C]ort [F]story,
the one you add to daily, you are the tragic [Am]loss.
No story book ending for this
fairy tale of you.
Just [F]the one composed with blood taken from your [Am]pen
that you hold in your lifeless [F]hand.[Am][F][Am][F]
[Am]Cry for you. S[F]hed tears. Mourn. [Am]Wish t[F]he e[C]nd[F].

[Verse 7]
(Did you ever look, did you [Am]ever
see that one [G]person,
[C]And the subtle way [G]that they do these
[Em]things and it hurts so [C]much?
So much it's like [Dsus4]choking d[G]own
the embers of a great [Em]blaze.[G]
[Am]It's that moment when your eyes
seem to spread aspersions
[Em]And to scream confessions at the
[G]in [Em]sipid sky parting [C]clouds.
You let this one person [G]come down
on the most perfect mo[Am]ment.
And it breaks my [C]heart [Em]to know the only [C]reason you a[G]re here
[Am]now is a reminder of w[Em]hat [C]I'll[G] nev[Em]er have..[C]
I'll never [Dsus4]have..[G][Em]
[G]I'l[Dsus4]l never...[G]
[Am]Standing so close knowing that it
kills me to breathe you in..
[G]Standing so [C]clo[G]se knowing that it
[Em]kills me to breathe [G]you [C]in.
But this table for one has be
[D]come [Em]beara[G]ble.[Am]
I now [Em]take com[C]fort in this,
and for this, I [G]cherish you.
[Am]Did you ever look,
did you ever see that one person
[G]And the[C] subtle way[G] that they do these
things and it [Em]hurts so [C]much?
So much it's like [Dsus4]chok ing [D]down
[Dsus4]the embers of a great[G] place[Am].
It's that moment when your eyes seem
to spread [Em]aspersions
[G]And to scream confessions at the
insipidsky parting [C]clouds.
And you let this one person [Dm]come [Em]down.. [G]come
[Am]down. I [Em]cher[G]ish you.. [C]I cherish you.
Just say that you would do the
[G]same [Dsus4]for me..[Em][G][Am]
Just say you would [Em]do the
[C]same..[Dsus4]
[G]Jus[Em]t say you[G] wo[Am]uld
[C]do the same for [Em]me.
[C]For as much as I lov[G]e Aut[C]umn[G],
I'm giving myself to Ashes.)
