G#          D#                 Cm          A#
I've been feeling like it's impossible to say it all
Fm       D#             A#
And I'm losing all control
G#        D#                Cm                 A#
'Cause I wish that I could break the fall and save
it all
Fm            D#              A#
But I've been holding it too close

     G#           D#
Wish I knew what you're thinking
Cm                A#
Words don't come that easy
Fm           D#          A#
We might be broken by design
  G#              D#
I can't help how I'm feeling
 Cm          A#
Scared of my own reasons
Fm            D#              A#
I don't wanna waste your time

Chorus:
               G#            D#           Cm
Searching for another way, another way, another way
    A#             Fm           D#
To keep her safe another day, another day,
  A#
another day
               G#         D#        G
It's easier to run away, run away, run away
         Cm           G#   D#   A#
Than to know what to say, say, say
                     Fm
Than to know what to say

I just lie awake and play it out in my head
Like I know what to do
But the world has got
a different plan for me and you
And it hurts when it's true

I don't know what you're thinking
Words don't come that easy
We might be broken by design
I can't help how I'm feeling
Scared of my own reasons
I don't wanna waste your time

Chorus:
Searching for another way, another way, another way
To keep us safe another day,
another day, another day
It's easier to run away, run away, run away
Than to know what to say, say, say

(Say, say, say)
(Say, say, say)

Chorus:
Searching for another way, another way, another way
To keep us safe another day,
another day, another day
It's easier to run away, run away, run away
Than to know what to say, say, say
Than to know what to say, say, say
To know what to say, say, say
