Intro: Dm- - Bb- - D5 - F5 - Bb5 - A-


Verse 1:
D5
  Trying to create something
           Bb5
that's not there
                   D5
A spark I saw as a bomb is
F5                   Bb5 A5
   just a means to an end
    D5
And I was just so happy
                Bb5
to be out of my shell again
                   D5
don't think that I really
      F5
cared for who or what
       Bb5
So for now I'll just
        A5
have to keep it shut


Refrain:
   D5
If you're not ready
Bb5
you're not ready
D5          F5
Please stop acting
         A5
like you are


Chorus:
D5            Bb5
  How could I know
          G5
that everything you say 
are lies about 
  A5
devotion and desire?
D5                Bb5
  And I know the spark
            G5
inside your eyes
was just the match I
        A5
used to set myself on fire


Post Chorus: Dm(hold)


Verse 2:
D5
  My mouth's shooting blanks
    Bb5
Situation's unbearable
I've gotten vulnerable
    D5                      F5
Now anyone is free to waltz right in
   Bb5
My temple's been invaded
            A5
and there's nobody guarding it
D5              Bb5
  All over this lonely life
    D5
but what's so wrong 
               F5
with being all alone?
 Bb5
Alone is the only way 
     A5
I've ever known


(Repeat Refrain)
(Repeat Chorus)
(Repeat Post Chorus)

Bridge:
D5            A5
  Now pleading    this kills
  Bb5
it  still bleeding
A5          D5
    My darling  I'm taking 
A5            Bb5
    my life back  to 
             A-- (hold)
start healing


(Repeat Chorus)
