C#5 F#5 A5 B5
C#5 F#5 A5 B5
C#5 F#5 A5 B5
C#5 F#5 A5
So please don't ask me how
B5 C#5
I ended up at my wits end
F#5 A5
And breaking down
B5 C#5 F#5
Pages torn from books we never read,
A5 B5
Cause we're plugged into this grid.
C#5 F#5
Don't pull this plug right now,
A5 B5
Or then we'd really have to live.
A5 F#5
When I die, will they remember not
A5 F#5
What I did, but what I haven't done?
A5 F#5
It's not the end that I fear with each breath
A5 B5
It's life that scares me to death.
E5
When we built these dreams on sand
B5
How they all slipped through our hands
C#5 A5
This might be our only chance
E5
Let's take this one day at a time
B5
I'll hold your hand if you hold mine
C#5 A5
The time that we kill keeps us alive.
C#5 F#5 A5 B5
C#5 F#5 A5 B5
C#5 F#5 A5 B5
C#5 F#5 A5 B5
C#5 F#5 A5
Your words won't save me now.
B5 C#5 F#5 A5
I'm at the edge feeling the sweat drip from my brow.
B5 C#5 F#5
"Get a grip on yourself" is what they say,
A5 B5
Every hour, every day.
C#5 F#5
Hands over my ears,
A5 B5
I've been screaming all these years!
A5 F#5
When I die, will they remember not
A5 F#5
What I did, but what I haven't done?
A5 F#5
It's not the end that I fear with each breath
A5 B5
It's life that scares me to death.

F#5 _ _
F#5 E5 F#5 _
We came in search of answers!
E5 D5 _ A5 B5 _ E5
We left empty handed again!
F#5 _ E5 F#5 _
Shots fired into the sky...
E5 D5 _
Are now returning!
A5 B5 _ E5
Where the fuck will you hide?
F#5 _ E5 F#5 _
Hiding from the laughter in the closets of our lives,
E5 D5 _ A5 E5 _
But the door hinges are squeaking letting in thin shards of light.
E5 F#5 _
And now a hand's extending outward,
E5 F#5 _
Quiet comfort they invite,
E5 D5 _
Do we dare take what they offer?
A5 E5 _
Do we step into the light?
A5 F#5
When I die, will they remember not
A5 F#5
What I did, but what I haven't done?
A5 F#5
It's not the end that I fear with each breath
A5 B5
It's life that scares me to death.
