Em                  D                        C
1. The pain that grips you, the fear that binds you
   D
   Releases life in me
   Em         D                    C
   In our mutual shame we hide our eyes
                          D                                 Em
   To blind them from the truth that finds a way for who we are
                      D                             C
   Please don't be afraid when the darkness fades away
                           D                        Em
   The dawn will break the silence screaming at our hearts
                         D                       C
   My love for you still grows and this I do for you
                   D
   Before I try to fight the truth my final time

   C                  D                      Em  D
R: Can't wash it all away, can't wish it all away       
   C                 D                         Em  D
   Can't cry it all away, can't scratch it all away    

2. Lying beside you listening to you breathe
   The light that flows inside of you burns inside of me
   Hold and speak to me of love without a sound
   Tell me you will live through this and I will die for you
   Cast me not away, say you'll be with me
   For I know I cannot bear it all alone

Em  D  C  D

R: Can't fight it all away, can't hope it all away      
   Can't scream it all away, it just won't fade away     

Em         D   C D
I tried so hard
