I remember when I used to laugh
Eb Gm
Truthfully without wearing my mask
Cm Gm/Bb
I wasn’t ready to live like that
Fm7/Ab Gm Bb
Had more self destructive activities at hand

And now I’ve used them up
Gm Ab/Bb
I’m all burnt out

[Verse 2]
Eb Gm
There were many things that he saw
Eb Gm
That no-one else had seen in me before
Ab
Well, what does that say?
Abm
What does that say?
Gm/Bb Bb
When you’ve accepted no-one else will see you clear like that ever again?

Tеll me if I’m wrong in thinking this
Eb Gm
That it’s like evеry time we talk we start over again

When I’m left feeling like I lost so much, but maybe I just got it wrong

There’s a few choices we have, oh-ah
Eb Eb/D
But only one being good

So when? Oh Jesus Christ, oh, when?
