[Verse 1]
Maybe I Fmlisten more than you A#think
And I can Cmtell that somebody A#sold you
We said we'd Fmnever let anyone A#in
We said we'd Cmonly die of lonely A#secrets
[Pre-Chorus]
G#The system A#only dreams in total D#darkness
CmWhy are you G#hiding from me?
A#We're in a different kind of D#thing now
G#All night you're talking to FmGod F
[Verse 2]
FmI thought that this would all work A#out after a while
Now you're Cmsaying that I'm asking for A#too much attention
Also Fmno other faith is light eA#nough for this place
We Cmsaid we'd only die of lonely A#secrets
[Pre-Chorus]
G#The system A#only dreams in total D#darkness
CmWhy are you G#hiding from me?
A#We're in a different kind of D#thing now
G#All night you're talking to FmGod F
[Chorus]
G#I can't exA#plain it
G#Any other, D#any other way
I can't exA#plain it
G#Any other, D#any other way
