[F#m]
[B] I don't go outside as much as I used to.
I'm [G#m] not home, just in my house, forgetting myself, or at least trying [E] to, but not forgiving
until I come back out.
I have a light on in my room.
During the day I hardly notice it, but at night it keeps me from falling asleep.
I have this dream of knowing you.
During the day I hardly notice it, but at night it keeps me from all other dreams.
[F#] The numbing of time taught me how to finally fall asleep.
I just [B] wish you'd come home and teach me how to wake [G#m] back up.
This is torture, this is truth, this is [E] unfamiliar pain, this is following an ache, but this is love.
There's a railroad track behind my house.
At night I can hear freight being taken to retail, but I'm still not sold on letting myself out.
[F#m] I never knew it was cold until I knew how the heat felt.
You were always warm when put in one place, but I was too shallow to contain the same flame.
[E] There's a nicotine patch on my nightstand.
You never did quit, but at least you tried.
Or maybe you did, but I never saw you lift a cigarette to your lips.
I was preoccupied looking into my reflection in the way you said you felt [Am] alive.
Your infection inflects the walls each night, and the [Bm] shades of color are all [E] black and
white, just like your goodbye.
You said to stop letting your love consume my mind!
I never did quit, but at least you tried.
I don't go outside as much as I used to.
I'm not home.
I'm just trying to sleep at night, forgetting your love, or at least trying to.
You said goodbye.
Now just say goodnight.
