Fm
I settled down
A twisted up frown
Disguised as a smile well
               C#     D#
You would have never known

I have it all
But not when I wanted
'Cause hope for me was a place uncharted
And overgrown

Fm            G#
You make your way in
     D#
I resist you just like this
C#                    Fm
You can't tell me to feel
                 G#
The truth never set me free
      D#       C#
So I did it myself

Chorus:
     Fm           C#
You can't be too careful anymore
G#                A#m
When all that is waiting for you
Fm         C#
Won't come any closer
G#            D#
You've got to reach a little

Open your eyes
Like I opened mine
It's only the real world
A life you will never know
Shifting your weight
To throw off the pain
Well, you can ignore it
But only for so long

You look like I did
You resist me just like this
You can't tell me to heal!
And it hurts remembering
How it felt to shut down

Chorus:
Can't be too careful anymore
When all that is waiting for you
Won't come any closer
You've got to reach out a little more

        Fm      A#m D#
so I'll do it myself

Chorus:
You can't be too careful anymore
When all that is waiting for you
Won't come any closer
You've got to reach out
Can't be too careful anymore
When all that is waiting for you
Won't come any closer
You've got to reach out more
