              Em             C     D
Don't want to be the one to walk away
But I can't bear the thought of one more day
I think I finally understand what it
            Em   C D
means to be lost

                Em              C        D
Can't find the road to lead us out of this
           Em                  C           D
A million miles from where we burned the bridge
               Em            C            D    E  C D
Can't keep pretending everything's gonna be alright
          Em          D#             Em
With the whole world falling down on me

Chorus:
C                        Em A
Cross the oceans in my mind
            C         B      Em C
Find the strength to say goodbye
                      B
In the end you never can wash
                     Em  C Em C
the blood from your hands

Fallen so far from where we were before
You'll never find what you've been searching for
Something to fill the void and make up for
all of those missing pieces of you
Like I could only dream to do

Chorus:
Cross the oceans in my mind
Find the strength to say goodbye
Everything that we believed in was a lie
Cross the oceans in your mind
Find a way to blur the line
In the end you never can wash
the blood from your hands

Em
And we never learn
       C    B     Em
So we fall down again
Em
Heaven, help me find a way
to dream within this nightmare

Chorus:
Cross the oceans in my mind
Find the strength to say goodbye
Everything that we believed in was a lie
Cross the oceans in your mind
Find a way to blur the line
In the end you never can wash
the blood from your hands
