a Db
In the night I sit alone
a
Lifeless to the world I know
Db
Faith loss long ago
a
In this graveyard I'm calling home
Db
Carved into the stone
a
A diary of broken bones and
Db
Words I should've known
a Db
But this grave's too deep to ever make it up
I'd do anything, anything
a Db
Just to feel like I could reach the ground
B
I'd do anything, anything now
a B
To spread these wings somehow
a B
I scream these words so loud
a B
But they never make a sound
Ab
I'm alive
a E
But I'm barely breathing now
Ab
So place my heart under the ground
a E
Lay me down
Ab
I'm alive
a E
But I'm barely breathing now
Ab
So drag my lungs into the ground
a E
Lay me down

a Db
In the night I sit alone
a
The stars rain on the world below
Db
Beg me to explode
a Db
Cuz dreams I keep are nowhere to be found
a
I'd do anything, anything just to stop
Db
This weight from pressing down
B
I'd do anything anything now
a B
To spread these wings somehow
a B
I scream these words so loud
a B
But they never make a sound
Ab
I'm alive
a E
But I’m barely breathing now
Ab
So place my heart under the ground
a E
Lay me down
Ab
I'm alive
a B
But I’m barely breathing now
Ab
So drag my lungs into the ground
a E
Lay me down
Db
Deep enough so that I'll never feel again
B
From beneath and in chance in breaking skin
Db
I'm giving in
All the promise of smiles and happiness
B
That's a dream I'm not willing to admit
a
I'm not ready yet
B
To face regret
a
No I'm not ready yet
E
I'm not ready yet
Gb a
No..
B
I'd do anything now
a B
So spread these wings somehow
a B
I scream these words so loud
a B
But they never make a sound
Ab
I'm alive
a E
But I'm barely breathing now
Ab
So place my heart under the ground
a B
Lay me down
Ab
I'm alive
a E
But I'm barely breathing now
Ab
Tread my lungs into the ground
a E
Lay me down
