C                               C
The night is deafening when the silence is listening
        Fsus2(maj7)                        Fsus2(maj7)
And I'm down and my knees, and I know that something is missing
            C                          C
Because the back of my mind is holding things I'm relying in
      Cadd9                            G6
But I choose to ignore it because I'm always denying them

      C                        C
I'm a bit of a manic when it's not as I plan
              Fsus2(maj7)                   Fsus2(maj7)
Cause I start losing my head and then I get up in a panic
         C                            C
Remember when we were kids and always knew when to quit it
          Cadd9                   G6
Are we denying a crisis or are we scared of admitting it

        Dm         Dm
I don't want to know

I just want to run to you
                  C                       Am Am7
And break off the chains, and throw them away
               F         G
I just want to be so much
                  C                      Am  Am7
And shake off the dust that turned me to rust
            F    F             G      G
Sooner than later, I'll need a saviour

I'll need a saviour


C                                C
It won't ever change if you want it to stay the same
         Fsus2(maj7)                     Fsus2(maj7)
I really hate it but I know it's hard to choose if you're chained
              C                                C
And when it's all you control cause you've got nothing else to hold
               Cadd9                             G6
You're getting tighter and tighter, it's getting harder to let it go

Sooner than later, I'll need a saviour
            Am
I'll need a saviour

G           F                         F        Am
  Stand me up and maybe I won't be so small
G                   F                             F
  Free my hands and feet and maybe I won't always fall
Fm     Fm
