 Verse:

           E				     Ab
Well, I've got some scattered pictures lying on my bedroom floor.

Reminds me of the time we shared.

  Makes me wish that you were here. Well,

E                              Ab
Now it seems I've forgotten my purpose in this life.

All the songs have been erased.

Guess I've learned from my mistakes.

Open the past and present. Now and we are there.

   Story to tell and I am listening

Open the past and present. And the future too.

 Verse 2:


E				    Ab
Loose ends tied in knots. Leaving a lump down in my throat.

Gagging on a souvenir.

Lodged to fill another year.

E                              Ab
Drag it  on  and  on  until my skin is ripped to shreads.

A
Leaving myself open wide

B
Living out a sacrifice.
