Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Is it this place  that makes me fall from  you
 Forget the words  that once rang  so true
Did  we expect that  life was  ever fair, my god
I  sowed a field  of rose and reaped a whipping  rod
And  everything I've held too tight inside
Could  make a part of me die
And  if my lips could only speak the name
The  dam would break
 What is this  ice that gathers  round my heart
 To stop the flood  of warmth before it even  starts
It  would make me blind to what  I thought would always  be
The  only constant  in the world  for me
And  every hour of every day I need to
fight  from pulling away
And  if my mind could only loose the chain
The  dam would break
For  all the things I hid away
And  all the words I could not say
The  dam would break
 Outtro:
 end on Am
