    C#m
The simplest things 
                   A
became the hardest part now
    C#m
The easiest parts have 
             A
taken all my dreams
E   F#m
I'm afraid
C#m               A
   I'll never be okay
I'm afraid
C#m
   I'm scared I
         A
can't be happy
E   F#m
I'm afraid
C#m
   This silence you feel is 
      A
not a way to be sincere 
(I'm afraid)
           C#m
And it's a way to cope
A way to heal (I'm scared 
I can't be happy)
    A
But not for me when 
E       F#m
I can't feel (I'm afraid) <-Growl
    C#m
The subtleties that 
make me want to 
(I'll never be okay)
A
Be alive and not a 
statue (I'm afraid)
C#m
Breathe the air
Be me to talk to (I'm scared 
I can't be happy)
A               E
I'm afraid I'll never
F#m    C#m(hold)
be the same
