Verse 1

AI miss you now,

I guess like I Eshould've missed you then.

AMy body moves,

like curtain waving Ein and out of wind;

in and out of windows.

AI can't untangle,

what I feel and Ewhat would matter most.

AI can't close an eye, I can't close an eyelid.

ENow there's just no point reaching out for me.

Chorus

In the C♯mdark, I'm just no good at giving reC♯mliefG♯.

In the C♯mdark, it won't be easy to find reC♯mliefG♯.

And I'm not C♯mproud that nothing will seem easy C♯mabouG♯t me.

But I promise Ethis: I won't go my whole F♯mlife,

telling you I C♯mdon't need.

But I promise Ethis: I won't go my whole F♯mlife,

telling you I C♯mdon't need.

Verse 2

AI'll tell you now,

I guess like I Eshould've told you then.

AThe thunder moves,

like damn drawers slamEming in my frame,

slamming in my framework.

AI can't untangle,

what I know and what sEhould matter most.

AI can't close an eye, I can't close an eyelid.

ENow there's just no point reaching out for you.

ARE YOU TEN YEARS AGO?

I'm Ataken, I am yours (if you show, you show)

I am up and doing circles

I'm Gtaken, I am yours (if you go, you go)

I am up and doing circles

I'm Ftaken, I am yours (if you show, you show)

I am up and doing circles

I'm Gtaken, I am yours (if you go, you go)

I am up and doing circles

I collAapse

I might stay out longer then

I Gleft the light on for you then

If you show, you show

If you show you Fshow G

When I Afeel like this

When I get so into myself

I lose track of where I'm Ggoing

then lose track of how to get going again

Feel myself Fslowing down

Fell myself turning round

Is this Gtaken?

When I Afeel like this

When I get so sick

Of myself, where are you Ggoing then

Without me and not knowing then

That we’re slowing Fdown

You’ve got to turn right around

And tell me that I'm taken then

GTell me if I'm yours

You colAlapse

The pressure of this life is so

you Gcan't be held accountable

if you go, you go

if you Fgo you go G

when you Aact like this

when you get so sick

of yourself the whole world falls aGway

in sense I feel like I

have only missed that I'm Fhere again

the feeling that I'm clear again

I'm not tGaken

When you Aact like this

When you get so into yourself

I lose sight of Gcommon goals

And letting go so I can be

All alone

FFeel myself going slow

Feel myself letting go

Not Gtaken

Not feeling like I'm yours

I'm Ataken, I am yours (if you show, you show)

I am up and doing circles

I'm Gtaken, I am yours (if you go, you go)

I am up and doing circles

I'm Ftaken, I am yours (if you show, you show)

I am up and doing circles

I'm Gtaken, I am yours (if you go, you go)

I am up and doing circles

I Acollapse

This life looks like a sentence

Though a Gconstant game of falling short

If you know, you know

If you know you Fknow G

When I Afeel like this

When I'm just so sick

Of feeling less than perfect

Isn't Gright for me

I never fight to see

if coming clean would get to me

I Ffeel myself holding back

I feel the pressure

It's finally back

I'm Gtaken

When you Afelt like this

When you saw it all come crashing down

Subtle but not Gunderground

I was there I saw the signs, I saw unfair

and so I Fwrite to you through other means

I let myself finally feel

GTaken, like I was yours

I'm Ataken, I am yours (I feel sick)

I am up and doing circles

I tGaken, I am yours (I feel)

I am up and doing circles

I'm tFaken, I am yours (I feel sick)

I am up and doing circles

I tGaken, I am yours (I feel)

I am up and doing circles

I'm Ataken, I am yours (I feel sick)

I am up and doing circles

I taGken, I am yours (I feel)

I am up and doing circles

I'm tFaken, I am yours (I feel sick)

I am up and doing circles

I tGaken, I am yours (I feel)

I am up and doing circles

I'm tAaken; I am yours (I feel)

I am up and doing circles

I'm Gtaken; I am yours (I feel)

I am up and doing circles
