BI ended up at my wicists end
fisAnd breakiAng down
BPages torn from books wcise never read,       fis   
ACause we're plugged intoB this grid.
cisDon't pull this plug rifisght now,
AOr then we'd reallyB have to live.


AWhen I die, will theyfis remember not
AWhat I did, but whfisat I haven't done?
AIt's not the end thfisat I fear with each breath
AIt's life that scares me to deaBth.


EWhen we built these dreams on sand
BHow they all slipped through our hands
cisThis might be our onlyA chance
ELet's take this one day at a time
BI'll hold your hand if you hold mine
cisThe time that we kill keeps usA alive.

fis 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?
