We said we’ve never let anyone in
Bm A
We said we’d only die of lonely secrets

Why are you hiding from me?

We’re in a different kind of thing now
G
All night you’re talking to God
Em
[Verse 2]
Em A
I thought that this would all work out after a while

Now you’re saying that I’m asking for too much attention

Also no other faith is light enough for this place

We said we’d only die of lonely secrets
[Chorus]

Why are you hiding from me?

We’re in a different kind of thing now
