Chorus (play same chorus)
Living alone, falling from grace I want to atone
but theres just empty space
can't face tomorrow now you're not coming back
walked off in the night and just left me the tracks
Bridge
I question your call by the tone of your voice
I know I should hang up but I don't have a choice
It happened that night whe you told me to go
Don't ask who's to blame I don't know.
