[Intro]
Am, G, F, G (2x)
[Verse]
Am
God has taken my eyes
G F
If I see no reflection,
G
how the hell do I know I'm alive?
Am
As the darkness bleeds into my mind
G F
The force that screams to give up
G
is grave enough to carve my name into a stone
[Pre-Chorus]
Fmaj7 Em7
Inspired by hope or defined by disease?
Fmaj7 C/B
If you knew what it meant to be me
[Chorus]
Am F C
Could you close your eyes and never say “never”?
C/B Am
Or would you call this the end of the road?
F C
I'm running out of memories, a shell of what I used to be
C/B
As this curse drains the life out of me
[Verse 2]
Am
God has taken my eyes
G F
Yet blind faith couldn't kill me
G
It just is what it is between him and I
Am
I've made sense of my senses
G F
and found my defenses internally
G
This is what sets me free
[Pre-Chorus]
Fmaj7 Em7
Inspired by hope or defined by disease?
Fmaj7 C/B
If you knew what it meant to be me
[Chorus]
Am F C
Could you close your eyes and never say “never”?
C/B Am
Or would you call this the end of the road?
F C
I'm running out of memories, a shell of what I used to be
C/B Am
As this curse drains the life out of me
[Bridge] (x2)
Am G F
And even if I never see again
G Am
I know I will breathe again
G A#sus2
With the strength of a thousand men
G
I won't let this be my end
[Pre-Chorus]
Fmaj7 Em7
Inspired by hope or defined by disease?
Fmaj7 C/B
If you knew what it meant to be me
[Chorus]
Am F C
Could you close your eyes and never say “never”?
C/B Am
Or would you call this the end of the road?
F C
I'm running out of memories, a shell of what I used to be
C/B
As this curse drains the life out of me
[Outro]
Am F C C/B
No I won't let this drain the life out of me
