My Dhands kept getting emptier each Aday.
You Bmlit the match, shook me awake.
The Gfire grew, you fanned the flames.
It Dburned until the walls let in the Alight,
Cause we're all passing Bmtime,
GLooking for the rush that makes us feel Dalive.
ALiving through the moments, trapped inside a Bmlie.
I need you Ghere tonight.
Show me there's Dmore to Alife
And we're not passing Bmtime.
You Bmtook the armor on my chestG  
And tore it opeDn, opeAn.
You Bmsaw my heart inside the mess,G  
Said it's not brokeDn, brokeAn.
Cause I Bmlost my way inside the truth,
GWatching moments slipping through
My Dhands kept getting emptier each Aday.
You Bmlit the match, shook me awake.
The Gfire grew, you fanned the flames.
It Dburned until the walls let in the Alight,
Cause we're all passing Bmtime,
GLooking for the rush that makes us feel aDlive,
ALiving through the moments, trapped inside a Bmlie.
I need you Ghere tonight.
Show me there's Dmore to Alife.
And we're not passing Atime.

Intro:

Bm G

You took my heart-shaped hourglass

And turned it over, over.

Bm G

The further that I'm falling back,

D A

You bring me closer, closer.

Cause I lost my way inside the truth,

Watching moments slipping through

D A

My hands kept getting emptier each day.

You lit the match, shook me awake.

The fire grew, you fanned the flames.

D A

It burned until the walls let in the light,

Cause we're all passing time,

G D

Looking for the rush that makes us feel alive.

A Bm

Living through the moments, trapped inside a lie.

I need you here tonight.

D A

Show me there's more to life

And we're not passing time.

Bm G

You took the armor on my chest

D A

And tore it open, open.

Bm G

You saw my heart inside the mess,

D A

Said it's not broken, broken.

Cause I lost my way inside the truth,

Watching moments slipping through

D A

My hands kept getting emptier each day.

You lit the match, shook me awake.

The fire grew, you fanned the flames.

D A

It burned until the walls let in the light,

Cause we're all passing time,

G D

Looking for the rush that makes us feel alive,

A Bm

Living through the moments, trapped inside a lie.
