Intro Dm
Dm
A word unpenned holds me by my angst again

Dm

Dm
Relief, I've learned, comes in foolish words and verse
Unloved and unheard by those who will not

Gm

Dm Bb E7 A
And though it pays well to feel like hell
Dm Bb E
The truth's I want you, but can't

So far away from your hole

And still I find

Still I find
Bb Am Dm
And still I find that I'm whole
