[intro] - Dm Bb A 6x
[verse 1]
Dm Bb C
"I'll try," she said as he walked away.
Dm
"Try not to lose you."
Bb C
Two vibrant hearts could change.
Dm
Nothing tears the being more than deception,
Bb C
unmasked fear.
Dm
"I'll be here waiting"
Bb C
tested and secure.
[interlude] - Dm
Dm
Nothing hurts my world,
Bb C
just affects the ones around me
Dm
When sin's deep in my blood,
Bb C
you'll be the one to fall.
[chorus]
Dm C
"I wish I could be the one,
F Bb
the one who won't care at all
Dm C
But being the one on the stand,
F Gm
I know the way to go, no one's guiding me.
Dm C
When time soaked with blood turns its back,
F Bb
I know it's hard to fall.
Dm C
Confided in me was your heart
F Gm Fm
I know it's hurting you, but it's killing me."

Dm Bb
Nothing will last in this life,
A Dm
our time is spent constructing,
Bb A
now you're perfecting a world... meant to sin.
Dm
Constrict your hands around me,
Bb A
squeeze till I cannot breathe,
Dm
this air tastes dead inside me,
Bb A
contribute to our plague.
Dm
Break all your promises,
Dm
tear down this steadfast wall,
Dm
restraints are useless here,
Dm
tasting salvation's near.

Oh!
Dm
Nothing hurts my world,
Bb C
just affects the ones around me
Dm
When sin's deep in my blood,
Bb C
you'll be the one to fall.
