Turning a blind eye
Won't make the world disappear
The second sight returns
So, too, does the pain and fear

C
I'll refuse to acknowledge
I'll refuse to accept
 Ab                        Eb           Gm
Reality force-feeding me anguish and regret
Bb       Ab             Fm Ab
You... once so close to me
Bbm           Ab             Fm            Ab
This once-so-sacred place is now a murder scene
Cm         Bb                Gm    Bb
Your name? Just a soliloquy, dead to me
Cm               Bb         Gm               Bb
Your presence forever will be exposure therapy
 
Cm
There stand strangers where the world used to be
Cm
Can't take change or are retinas still not letting me see?

No "we", no "us"

And you will suffer

You are the victor? How heavy's the crown?
