C#m F#m A
So please don't ask me how
B C#m
I ended up at my wits end
F#m A
And breaking down
B C#m F#m
Pages torn from books we never read,
A B
Cause we're plugged into this grid.
C#m F#m
Don't pull this plug right now,
A B
Or then we'd really have to live.
A F#m
When I die, will they remember not
A F#m
What I did, but what I haven't done?
A F#m
It's not the end that I fear with each breath
A B
It's life that scares me to death.
E
When we built these dreams on sand
B
How they all slipped through our hands
C#m A
This might be our only chance
E
Let's take this one day at a time
B
I'll hold your hand if you hold mine
C#m A
The time that we kill keeps us alive.

Your words won't save me now.
B C#m F#m A
I'm at the edge feeling the sweat drip from my brow.
B C#m F#m
"Get a grip on yourself" is what they say,
A B
Every hour, every day.
C#m F#m
Hands over my ears,
A B
I've been screaming all these years!
A F#m
When I die, will they remember not
A F#m
What I did, but what I haven't done?
A F#m
It's not the end that I fear with each breath
A B
It's life that scares me to death.

F#m E F#m _
We came in search of answers!
E D _ A B _ E
We left empty handed again!
F#m _ E F#m _
Shots fired into the sky...
E D _
Are now returning!
A B _ E
Where the fuck will you hide?
F#m _ E F#m _
Hiding from the laughter in the closets of our lives,
E D _ A E _
But the door hinges are squeaking letting in thin shards of light.
E F#m _
And now a hand's extending outward,
E F#m _
Quiet comfort they invite,
E D _
Do we dare take what they offer?
A E _
Do we step into the light?
A F#m
When I die, will they remember not
