Verse 1:
========
              C5                                
Praying for myself. These thoughts I try to hide.
       G5              
I have faith in me and hope this will survive.
                     Ab5                     C5
But it's tearing me apart. I can't hear the words by which I guide.
          G5                        C5
So I must ask again who will carry me.


Verse 2:
========
           C5
I cannot deny that nothing can defend
          G5                     
from the helplessness that's cutting deep inside,
               Ab5                               C5
and I can't prevent the thought that nothing's real.
                   G5                    C5
Seems I'm waiting years for this day to end.

Verse 3:
========
                        C5
The strength I need to feel, the pride inside of me,
          G5                  
Are not there behind the face that's staring back at me.
                   Ab5                      C5
The anger and the pain of knowing where I am.
                G5                 C5
I have come so far and I cannot return.


Chorus:
=======
              Ab5                  C5
Nothing I can do that I have not done.
               G5
No words I can say. No truth left that I can see.
                   Ab5                       C5
So must I let this end so everything falls apart.
                   G5                    C5
Before I live the life as I have always done.
                 Ab5                 C5
Tell me what to do so I do nothing wrong.
                 Ab5                           C5
Something I can hope for. Something real that I can see.
                  Ab5                        C5
So nothing falls apart. So that it does not end.
           G5                   C5
I cannot return. I can't start again.
