VERSE 1:

 E5                                    D5 
you'll rescue me right? in the exact same way they never did
 E5                                       D5 
I'll be happy right? when your healing pow-ers kick in


 E5                                          D5
you'll complete me right? then my life can fi-nal-ly__ begin.__
 E5                                   D5
I'll be worthy right? only when you re-al-ize the gem I am.


PRE-CHORUS:
    
          E         A           D            E
but this won't work_ now the way__ it once did.__
                     A              D                E       
and I won't keep it up__ e-ven though___ I would love___ to.
                      A                 D            E
once I know who I'm not,__ then I'll know__ who I am.__
                      A               D          E
but I know I won't keep_ on play-ing___ the victim.


CHORUS:

E                   D                   A
these precious il-lu-sions in___ my head___
                   E                       D                
did not let me down___ when I was de-fense-less
                    A    
and parting with them___ is like
                G                      
part-ing with in-visible___ best friends___


Verse 2
 E5                                  D5
this ring will help me yet as will you knight in shining armor
     E5                                      D5
this pill will help me yet as will these boys gone though like water


 D                      G           C           D
but this won't work as well as the way it once did
 D              G              C            D
cuz I want to decide between survival and bliss
 D                        G        C                  D       
and though I know who I'm not I still don't know  who I am
 D                   G       C          D
but I know I won't keep on playing the victim


CHORUS

E                   D                   A
these precious il-lu-sions in___ my head___
                   E                       D                
did not let me down___ when I was de-fense-less
                    A    
and parting with them___ is like
                G                      
part-ing with child-hood___ best friend___


BRIDGE:

 A             C             G       E  
I've spent so long firmly looking outside me

 A             C          G        B
I've spent so much time living in survival mode
