Gm
What kind of promise is unbreakable?
                                  Cm
What kind of passion is hard to resist?
What kind of man turns his back on the real and the physical?
What kind of love is this?

What kind of truth is invisible?
What kind of future does not exist?
And when things fall apart and the center's not holding
What kind of love is this?

Chorus:
     Cm
Cry heaven
       D#             Gm           Cm
Right now, someone is echoing the silence
       D#              Gm                  Cm
Right now, someone is waiting for another pin to drop
Right now, someone is praying for patience to go on living
Right now, someone is saying, "Just make it stop"
Right now
Shame, shame, shame

Too many words are unspoken
Too many moments and lives we've missed
There's a line to be drawn between endless and infinite
What kind of love is this?

Chorus:
Cry heaven, cry heaven
Right now, someone is echoing the silence
Right now, someone is waiting for another pin to drop
Right now, someone is praying for patience to go on living
Right now, someone is saying, "Just make it stop"
Right now
Pray for me, pray for me, pray for me

Right now, someone is echoing the silence
Right now, someone is waiting for another pin to drop
Right now, someone is praying for patience to go on living
Right now, someone is saying, "Just make it stop"
Right now
