the no return
(E)

(F#)
and every one the last

whores the line we had drawn before has disappeared

too far gone
Verse 2
repeat guitar from verse 1
i know these words
these sounds i recognise
and shapes all too familiar
the saddest thing;
a point to recognise;
all reasons and excuses;
well they are, i fear, as pathetic as are your own
