Long ago
Just like the hearse you died to get in again
We are so far from you

G                 Em    B        G#
Burning on just like a match you start to incinerate
        A        C#    B
The lives of everyone you knew

G#        A            C#
And what's the worst to take, from every heart you break
    B        G
And like a blade you stain
          A
Well I've been holding on tonight

Chorus:
E                 B
What's the worst that I could say?
                C       
Things are better if I stay
C#           
So long and goodnight
C
So long and goodnight

G    Em
Came a time
            B          G#            A
When every star fall brought you to tears again
      C#        B
We are the very hurt you sold

 [Chorus]  [Post chorus:]

E                  B
But if you carry on this way
    C       
Things are better if I stay
C#           
So long and goodnight
C       
So long and goodnight

Can you hear me?
Are you near me?
Do we deserve
to leave the earth?
Do we learn
           B(2)
When both our cars collide?

Chorus
