Cm Gm From morning to night I stayed out of sight Dm F Didnʼt recognize Iʼd become Cm Gm No more than alive Iʼd barely survive Dm F In a word...overrun Gm Dm Wonʼt hear a sound from my mouth Gm Dm Iʼve spent too long on the inside out Gm Dm My skin is cold to the human touch Gm Dm F This bleeding heartʼs not beating much Cm Gm I murmured a vow of silence and now Dm F I donʼt even hear when I think aloud Cm Gm Extinguished by light I turn on the night Dm F Wear its darkness with an empty smile Ab Iʼm creeping back to life G My nervous system all awry Ab Bb Iʼm wearing the inside out Cm Gm Look at him now, heʼs paler somehow Dm F But heʼs coming around Cm Gm Heʼs starting to choke, itʼs been so long since he spoke Dm F Well he can have the words right from my mouth Gm Dm And with these words I can see Gm Dm Clear through the clouds that covered me Gm Dm Just give it time then speak my name Gm Dm Now we can hear ourselves again Gm Dm Iʼm holding out for the day Gm Dm When all these clouds have blown away Gm Dm Iʼm with you now, can speak your name Gm Dm F Bb Now we can hear ourselves again
