Verse 1:
========
              Cm                                
Praying for myself. These thoughts I try to hide.
       G7              
I have faith in me and hope this will survive.
                     Ab                     Cm
But it's tearing me apart. I can't hear the words by which I guide.
          G7                        Cm
So I must ask again who will carry me.


Verse 2:
========
           Cm
I cannot deny that nothing can defend
          G7                     
from the helplessness that's cutting deep inside,
               Ab                               Cm
and I can't prevent the thought that nothing's real.
                   G7                    Cm
Seems I'm waiting years for this day to end.

Verse 3:
========
                        Cm
The strength I need to feel, the pride inside of me,
          G7                  
Are not there behind the face that's staring back at me.
                   Ab                      Cm
The anger and the pain of knowing where I am.
                G7                 Cm
I have come so far and I cannot return.


Chorus:
=======
              Ab                  Cm
Nothing I can do that I have not done.
               G7
No words I can say. No truth left that I can see.
                   Ab                       Cm
So must I let this end so everything falls apart.
                   G7                    Cm
Before I live the life as I have always done.
                 Ab                 Cm
Tell me what to do so I do nothing wrong.
                 Ab                           Cm
Something I can hope for. Something real that I can see.
                  Ab                        Cm
So nothing falls apart. So that it does not end.
           G7                   Cm
I cannot return. I can't start again.
