[Verse 1]
A D
Broken glass lines the streets and sparkles one by one
A D
A beautiful distraction created by the sun
A D
If only I could mould these thoughts to boney fists of rage
A D
Instead I disregard them all and I try to act my age
[Chorus]
F#m A
I really want to help you let you feel free
D C#m
But I haven't much hope left and I'm saving it for me...my friend

A D
The stories that you tell me I already know

Eroding like the shorelines of Lake Ontario

It's true that if I walk away I'll end up right here
A D
The duct tape holds the water out but does nothing for the fear
[Chorus]
F#m A
I really want to help you let you feel free
D C#m
But I haven't much hope left and I'm saving it for me

I really want to help you if only you could see

That I haven't much time left I'm so so... so so so sorry

[Verse 3]
A D
Instead of feeling guilty I'll tie the loose ends
A D
To every word I say to you I can only hope it mends
A D
Soon these hours turn to days like all the years before
F#m D
And everything accumulates that we chose to ignore
[Chorus]

I really want to help you let you feel free

But I haven't much hope left and I'm saving it for me

I really want to help you if only you could see
