Biography:
Silverstein is a 5-piece post-hardcore band from Burlington, Ontario, Canada; formed in 2000. The band name was taken from the famous children's author Shel Silverstein.
After several lineup changes, the band acquired Billy Hamilton, a local fan who learned of the band's need for a bassist on the Internet message board "The 905 Board" (an Ontario area outreach board which used to be for local musicians). In Christmas of 2001, he joined the band after Shane Told helped him learn the music for the songs.

Tuning: Standard
Intro: G#m-F#-B-F#
G#m
She's cutting out the bruises,
E F# G#m
Forgetting her excuses for being here again
E B F# G#m
with a suitcase packed and waiting by the door.
E F# G#m
In her head, convinced herself she hasn't lost enough to quit.
E B
But tonight she lays here thinking,
F# E B F#
What if I just left
G#m F# E
In the middle of the night
B F#
Back to California
G#m-F#
And never look back?
Chorus:
G#m E
She'll fantasize about it
B F# E
every single day but she can't find it
F# G#m
in her heart to run away,
B
and no one's listening.
G#m E
With Northern Massachusetts,
B F#
on his knees to stay, he's begging,
E F# G#m
Please, oh baby please, I can explain.
E-F#
It won't happen again.
G#m
He's putting out the fires
E B
and he's making her believe
F# G#m
he's really changed this time;
E F# G#m
But it's obvious it's just another lie, lapse and relapse.
E B F#
And again she lays beside him thinking,
E B--F# G#m F# E
I'll pretend in the middle of the night,
B F#
my eyes are closed, I'm sleeping,
G#m F#
But I won't come back.
Chorus:
G#m E
She'll fantasize about it
B F# E
every single day but she can't find it
F# G#m
in her heart to run away,
B
And no one's listening.
G#m E
With Northern Massachusetts,
B F#
On his knees to stay, he's begging,
E F# G#m
Please, oh baby please, I can explain.
G#m-F#-E-F#
It won't happen again... It won't happen again
G#m-F#-E-F#
Bridge:
G#m
How long can this last?
Gm
The final straw was the hospital.
E
At least she told herself that.
F#
But she just can't find the strength to end it.
E B F# G#m F# E
I just left in the middle of the night,
B F#
Back to California,
G#m-F#
And never look back.
Chorus:
G#m E
