Take my breath away, I don't need it anyway

cause I'm fine here in my old forgotten world

where I can be myself, left with the hand I'm dealt

and it's hard to get a grip when you're holding onto something you just let slip away



Pre-Chorus

chords are played arpeggiated by an acoustic guitar

[Dm]All these [C]thoughts stuck [Bb]in my [F]mind

[Dm]spinning [C]round like [Bb]endless

time for once in my mind



Chorus

chords are played by piano and bass

[Dm] I do wanna [Bb]feel something you call [F]real

I don't think that [A]I've got time for these scars to [Dm]heal

And the days just go [Bb]by leaving questions in my [F]mind

I guess I'll find the [A]answers some day in another life

guitar plays a lead riff under that (repeated x2):

Here with my old friend, the silence in the end

And it rings so loud that I cannot pretend

I just close my eyes and ask a thousand whys

Will it change or stay the same? Will it ever go away?

The question still remains
