What cause have I to feel glad?
Am C G
I've built my life on judgement and causing pain.
I don't know those eyes I see in the bloodstained chrome.
D
Now everything that I've had
Am C G
and everything I've known have been thrown away.
And with time I've come to find this isn't my home.
D Am C
I've stoked the fire, seen more pain that you can know.
G
The tears of the broken have washed away my soul.
D Am C
Pushed by desire to change the way my stream will flow,
G D
now I've awoken, and I'm taking back control.
Am C
I tried my best to block out the screams,
G
but they're haunting me in my dreams.
Please break my shackles,
I want it to stop.
D
I man these wretched machines.
Am C
Day in, day out, the grinding wears on my brain.
G
Undermining my sanity, making me question my reality.
D
But life is not as it seems.
Am C
Should I take a chance of freedom and throw it all down the drain?
G
I've been imprisoned, please burn my transgressions away.

I'm sick of hurting, sick of thinking it's all I do.

I break those around me, those spared are very few.

But the bright sun is burning, and my sky shines ever blue.

Friendships surround me, I'm becoming a part of you.
