[Verse 1]
Am7 Em7
There is a girl up in her bed
Am7 Em7
Blade against her skin
Fmaj7/C C G
I see you
Am7 Em7
Hoping the pain covers the dread
Am7 Em7
Keeps the secrets in
Fmaj7/C C G
I see you
[Chorus]
G E7 A7
You think there’s no one there
Fmaj7/C D7
To hear your plea
Fmaj7/C Em7 Am7
But I can see
Em7 Am7 Em7
[Verse 2]
Am7 Em7
There is a girl over a cliff
Am7 Em7
Trying to break her fall
Fmaj7/C C G
I see you
Am7 Em7
Hoping she’ll find one little if
Am7 Em7
Clinging to the wall
Fmaj7/C C G
I see you
[Chorus]
G E7 A7
Whether it’s black despair
Fmaj7/C D7
Or just ennui
Fmaj7/C Em7 Am7
I can see
[Post-Chorus]
Am7 Fmaj7/C D7
Wires get crossed and tangled
C D/F#
People bruise and they leave
Fmaj7/C
But I see
D7
And I believe
[Verse 3]
Am7 Em7
There is a girl out with the tide
Am7 Em7
Empty as the sky
Fmaj7/C C G
I see you
Am7 Em7
Dead to the world, frozen inside
Am7 Em7
Drier than an eye
Fmaj7/C C G
I see you
[Chorus]
G E7 A7
You want to disappear
Fmaj7/C D7
And just not be
Fmaj7/C Em7 Am7
But I can see
[Post-Chorus]
Am7 Fmaj7/C D7
People get crushed and broken
C D/F#
People lose and they grieve
Fmaj7/C
But I see
D7
And I believe
Fmaj7/C
I see
D7
And I believe
