[Intro]
[Am]On the edge of [Em]reas[E]on, [F]beyond under[Gm]stand[Am]ing
Silent [Em]she waits, [F]perfect [G]oblivion
[A] [E] [F]She's crawling [G]to the end,[A] [E] [F] perfect obli[G]vion
[Interlude]
[A] [E] [F] [G] [A] [E] [F]
[Verse 1]
I [Hm]live behind [Em]mirrors within a prison without any bars
Yet I remain [A]lost [C]to the [F]wor[C]ld[F]
In [E]hell I'm suspended within a prism
[Cm]So-[Am]ooo [C]many [Dm]walls, [Am]so [F]many years
[Am]Too oft[C]en I've watched them [F]die
[Chorus]
[D]Images of yesterday[Em] feeling so far aw[C]ay
[F] I can'[C]t let go of the past, the years, th[G]e swee[Em]t romance
[Am] I am a ticking time bomb waiting [Dm]in [C]a trance
I need you [F]more [C]tonight than you will ever [Am]know
I swear to never forget this heart[Dm]brea[C]king da[Em]nce
[Verse 2]
[Em]The hell of being trapped is simply not a match for death
[A]Heav[Em]en [C] await[F]s
Now I [Em]know not to be afraid of the end
[Am]My [C]love a[F]wai[C]ts, will you be there?
[Am]Take [C]me away [F] (I'm ready, I'll be home soon)
[Chorus]
[D]Images of yesterday[Em] feeling so far aw[C]ay
[F] I can'[C]t let go of the past, the years, th[G]e swee[Em]t romance
[Am] I am a ticking time bomb waiting [Dm]in [C]a trance
I need you [F]more [C]tonight than you will ever [Am]know
I swear to never forget this heart[Dm]brea[C]king da[Em]nce
[Verse 3]
[Em]Beautiful pure silenc[Bb]e, come on! Embrace me
[A]sweet perfect nothing swallow my fears, come on!
[Bb]If I had just one [C]wish
[Am] [Gm] [Am]
[Bababda] [Bababda] [Baaaa]
[Am]I'd choke prophets, hang angels, burn children
[Bb]oh, I'd [A]drink oceans, eat the moon, flood the world, [Bb]end every[C]thing
br[A]eathe [E]in, [F]breathe out
we [Am]could run far aw[Em]ay [F]but then how would we sleep at night?
[Am]I've been looking [Em]for the word[F]s to say our last goodbyes
[Am]Hold on to [Em]fleeting hopes that [F]I just might s[Dm]urv[F]ive
[Outro] (Repeat 5x while fading out)
[Am]Give in to the pl[Em]eas[C]ure
make [F]it last forever
[Am]Hold on hold on [F]to everything we [C]are
[Am]On the edge of [Em]reas[E]on, [F]beyond under[Gm]stand[Am]ing
Silent [Em]she waits, [F]perfect [G]oblivion
