[G]I’m so tired of being [Bm]here, [G]suppressed by all of [Bm]my childish fears
[G]And if you have to leave, [Bm]I wish that you could just leave
[G]’Cause your presence still lingers [Bm]here, and it won’t leave me alone
[chorus]
[Em] [Bm]These wounds won’t seem to [Em]heal, [Bm]this pain is just too [Em]real
[Bm]There’s just too much that [D]time cannot erase [Em]
[chorus]
[Em]When you [C]cried I’d [D]wipe away [Bm]all of your tears [Em]
[Em]When you’d [C]scream I’d [D]fight away [Bm]all of your fears [Em]
[Em]I [C]held your [D]hand through [Bm]all of these years [Em]
[Em]But you [C]still [D]have all of me
[section 2]
[G]You used to captivate me [Bm]by your resonating light
[G]But now I’m bound by the [Bm]life you left behind
[G]Your face it haunts [Bm]my once pleasant dreams
[G]your voice it chased away [Bm]all the sanity in me
[chorus]
[Em]These [Bm]wounds won’t seem to [Em]heal, this [Bm]pain is just too [Em]real
There’s [Bm]just too much [D]that time cannot [Em]erase

[Em]But you [C]still [D]have all of [C]me
[Closing]
