   D   F#m                 Bm                  F#m
No sleep No sleep until I´m done with finding the answer
    D  F#m                  Bm                 F#m 
Wont stop wont stop before I find a cure for this cancer
D         F#m               Bm           F#m
Sometimes I feel like I am down so and disconnected
D       F#m              Bm         F#m
Somehow I know that I am haunted to be wanted

           D                  F#m           Bm
I´ve been watching I´ve been waiting in the shadows
       F#m
For my time
           D                   F#m         Bm
I´ve been searching I´ve been living for tomorrows
       F#m
All my life

(that are the same chords )
They say that I must learn to kill before I can feel save
But I I rather kill myself than turn into their slave
Sometimes I feel that I should go and play with the thunder
Somehow I just dont wanna stay and wait for a wonder

I´ve been watching I´ve been waiting in the shadows
For my time
I´ve been searching I´ve been living for tomorrows
All my life

Baby,I´ve been walking walking in circles
Watching,waiting for something
Heal me,touch me,feel me come take me higher

I´ve been watching I´ve been waiting in the shadows
For my time
I´ve been searching I´ve been living for tomorrows
All my life

Db           B

Eb          
you say i'm heartless
Db               
and you say i don't care
Eb                Db

i put a shield upon you
i didn't mean to hurt you
i would have only poisoned your mind
never meant to make you cry
you've been so thoughtless
i can see right through you
you used to be there for me
so don't you leave say goodbye
cause you have changed but so have i
guilty...guilty i feel so
empty... empty you know how to make me feel
i never thought that the time and the distance
between us made you so much colder
i'll carry the world on my shoulders
guilty...   empty...
guilty, ... guilty i feel so 
empty, ... empty you know how to make me feel

Something quiet to ease my mind

When the pressure's taking me over and over

Cause I've been down and I've been crawling 
Pushed around and always falling 
You're up there, you're always with me 
Smiling down on me

E5
Feel the heat below my feet
A5
I have to go, no time to sleep
E5
Can't believe the things you say 
A5
I turn my head and walk away
Dm                    E5       A5
You make me sick, you make me nervous

Times are gone when you would say 
A5
This is the one and seize the day
E5
Times are gone for honesty
A5
"My victory is your defeat"
D5                       E5      A5
Oh can't you see you've been mistaken

Chorus:

In my way I feel strong and it turns me on
      A5         E5       A5       E5
In my life, I decide, I decide, I decide


Verse 2:
All you do, you can't deny it, 
It's waste of time, waste of time
Can i suggest that you invest 
In something more than hopelessness
Before you know, the ride is over

Chorus

E
It's up to you if you give it up
Am
It's up to you if you won't stop x2

It's up to you if you give it up, give it up 
It's up to you if you won't stop
It's up to you if you give it up, give it up, 
It's up to you, it's up to you

The record shows that you're dead but you're still living
Every time you have died you have been given
Another chance to fix your bad attitude
And make a move, it's up to you 

It's up to you if you give it up, give it up x3

it's up to you x2

E5              
No more blame I am destined to keep you sane
                   C5
Gotta rescue the flame
                               E5
Gotta rescue the flame in your heart

                         
No more blood, I will be there for you my love
I will stand by your side
The world has forsaken my girl


C5                            G5           D5
  I should have seen it would be this way
C5                               B5                   E5
  I should have known from the start what she's up to
C5                G5               D5         
  When you have loved and you've lost someone
C5                   B5           E5 
  You know what it feels like to lose


        E5
She's fading away
C5
Away from this world
D5
Drifting like a feather
       G5                 B5
She's not like the other girls
      E5         
She lives in the clouds
      C5               
and talks to the birds
D5           
Hopeless little one
       G5                  B5         
She's not like the other girls I know


No more shame, she has felt too much pain, in her life
In her mind she's repeating the words
All the love you put out will retun to you

I should 
have seen it would be this way
I should have known from the start what she's up to
When you have loved and you've lost someone close to you
You know what it feels like to lose

Verse 1: (goes clean to)
          Dm 			  C	         Am
Haven't slept in a week my bed has become my coffin
          Dm                              C        Am
Cannot breath cannot speak my head's like a bomb still waiting
          A#                Gm
Take my heart and take my soul
          A
I don't need them anymore

            Dm
The one i love 
   F           C          Gm               Dm
is striking me down on my knees (The one i love)
F           C     Gm                Dm
Drowning me in my dreams (The one i love)
F        C    Gm     Dm
Over and over again 
            A
dragging me under



VERSE 
      Dm                           Am  
Hynoptized by the night silently rising beside me
       Dm                           Am
Emptyness nothingness is burning a hole inside me
          A#                Gm
Take my faith and take my pride
          A
I don't need them anymore

Bm                            A    E
Deep inside my heart I know
A                                   E          F#m
Simply put I've been stabbed in the back ever since I remember
Bm                             A
And deep inside it hurt to let go


F#m             E        F#m         E      D
I'm back in the picture, back in the picture
              A             F7  D
I wonder what took so long, so long

F#m             E        F#m         E      D
I'm back in the picture, back in the picture
              A             F   D
I wonder what took so long, so long


Dedicate everything I create 
To my friends I would die for
But you will always be the one
Memories that you can't overrun, memories I could cry for
I thought I'd always be on the run

Ab5              G5
   I dumped you again
Db5          C5
   I don't understand
Ab5                 G5
   It's happened before
Db5               C5
   Can't take it no more

Ab5               D5
   These foolish games
Db5                   C5
   Always end up in confusion
Ab5               D5
   I'll take you back
            G5                  
   Just to leave you once again

C5             Ab5
   I died in my dreams
                           Eb5
   What's that supposed to mean?
                   Bb5   
   Got lost in the fire
C5              Ab5
   I died in my dreams
                         Eb5
   Reaching out for your hand
            Bb5   
   My fatal desire

I've failed you again
Cause I let you stay
I used to pretend
That I felt okay

Just one big lie
Such a perfect illusion
I made you mine
Just to hurt you once again
