F#mHeadlights in your eF#sus2yes
Oh darling, there are Eangels by your side
When you've lived a Dlife in a building D6stood on lies
The C#truth will tear it down
You'rF#me choking in your F#sus2sleep

And this could be the Dmatch that could burn you D6to the ground
Death's C#rattling your dreams

Your Dnights spent shouting at the stars and moon (you never could)
ESleep tight with them watching over you (you never were)
A F#mlonely lover holding on to me
And now you're all alC#one
