D#m                     B
If I could tell you "no"
F#                               C#
I thought it best you didn't know
D#m                B
Don't see it coming
F#                  C#
The darkness visible

But when its eyes fix mine
It's silver and it's stone
I feel it rising, oh
The gathering storm

B                                C#
And when I feel in darkness is a heartbeat away
      D#m
And I don't know how to fight it
     C#
It's a heartbeat away and now
B
You don't know me like this
       C#
It's a heartbeat away
     D#m
And I don't know how to hide it
       C#
It's a heartbeat away

Chorus:
               F#
And I picture you
           D#m
Soaked in light
           C#
I picture you
        B
And in you I had no doubt
           D#m
When the chaos calls me out
        F#                                C#
And it feels like there is nothing I can do
           F#
I picture you

And the night falls fast
I know it's heavy on the skin
Will it be ever thus
Barely visible

But when your eyes fix mine
Embracing your denial
Well I hold my breath
Through the waste and the wild

When I feel it rising
And it's a heartbeat away
And I
Don't know how to fight it
It's a heartbeat away
And now
You don't know me like this
It's a heartbeat away
And I
Don't know how to fight it
It's a heartbeat away

Chorus
