CTell me a piece of your history 
            G                  Cthat you're proud to call your own
CSpeak in words you picked up 
       G                    Cas you walked through life alone.
CWe used to swim in your stories 
       G                    Cand be pulled down by their tide,
Cchoking on the words 
                     G      C and drowning with no air inside.

           Em                  C Now you've hit a wall and it's not your fault

       C           G          D'cause it is not enough to be dumbstruck.
(Can you fill the silence?)

C, G, Em, G, C, Em, G

Tell me a piece of your history 
that you've never said out loud.
Pull the rug beneath my feet 
and shake me to the ground.
Wrap me around your fingers,
break the silence open wide,
and before it seeps into my ears,
it fills me up from the inside.

Now you've hit a wall and you're lost for words,
my dear, my dear, my dear.
Now you've hit a wall and you hit it hard
my dear, my dear, oh dear.

It is not enough to be dumbstruck;
(Can you fill this silence?)
you must have the words in that head of yours.
And oh, oh, can you feel the silence?
I can't take it anymore,
'cause it is not enough to be dumbstruck.
(Can you fill the silence?)

C, G, D

       C      If you give it a name, then it's already won.
         G                  DWhat you good for, what you good for?
       C      If you give it a name, then it's already won.
         G                  DWhat you good for, what you good for?
       C                         GIf you give it a name, then it's already won.
         DWhat you good for, what you good for?
       C                         GIf you give it a name, then it's already won.
         Em                 DWhat you good for, what you good for?

It is not enough to be dumbstruck;
(Can you fill this silence?)
you must have the words in that head of yours.
And oh, oh, can you feel the silence?
I can't take it anymore,
'cause it is not enough to be dumbstruck, oh.
