[Intro] A Bm D G A Bm D G A Bm D G A Bm [Verse 1]
Bm
In the cold dead air of a Saturday night

          D
There's a moonlit sky, but it don't feel right

    A                   G
The warnin' signs lit a spark inside

                     F#m
And you can't let it go

              Bm
In a flash we see with a primitive eye

         D
That the elephant pacing the room has died

A                          G
Whispered thoughts turn to wasted worlds

              F#m
And everybody knows
[Pre-Chorus]
         Em            D           G           A     D Bm
You were caught in the middle of a knife fight long ago

         Em             D              G            A    Bm
Counting scars from the battle in your mind, you're not alone
[Chorus]
A                                    Bm
No, you can't push us back without a fight no more

        D                           G
No, you can't keep us running away, keep us running

        A                          Bm
No, you can't see the thunder in a lightning storm

        D                                 G
No, you can't see what's coming your way, see what's coming
[Post-Chorus]
A               Bm
Reactors set to overload

        D                        G    A Bm
And the dam of the river's ready to explode
[Verse 2]
Bm
In thе smoke-filled air of a Saturday night

          D
Therе's a moonlit sky, but it don't feel right

        A                     G
Now you walk the streets as a raging fire

                F#m
Burns out of control

       Bm
As the sirens blare, all the people are scared

     D
An invisible threat's hanging in the air

        A                           G
Now you watch your step where there ain't just breath

                        F#m
It's nightmare's taking hold
[Pre-Chorus]
         Em            D           G           A     Bm
You were caught in the middle of a knife fight long ago

      Em          D         G         A         Bm
Every day's new reality's a minefield for the soul

    Bm           D             G         A       Bm
So immune to the damage, every night you take it home

         Em             D              G            A    Bm
Counting scars from the battle in your mind, you're not alone
[Chorus]
        A                            Bm
No, you can't push us back without a fight no more

        D                           G
No, you can't keep us running away, keep us running

        A                          Bm
No, you can't see the thunder in a lightning storm

        D                                 G
No, you can't see what's coming your way, see what's coming
[Post-Chorus]
A               Bm
Reactors set to overload

        D                        G    
And the dam of the river's ready to explode
[Bridge]
       A       Bm               D
'Cause I can't breathe, I can't breathe

       A              G
And an atmosphere catalyzed by fear

                       F#m
Our sons and daughters scream

  Bm                     D
I can't breathe, I can't breathe

       A                            G
And we can't stand still while they aim to kill

                       F#m
Our sons and daughters dreams
[Chorus]
        A                            Bm
No, you can't push us back without a fight no more

        D                           G
No, you can't keep us running away, keep us running

        A                          Bm
No, you can't see the thunder in a lightning storm

        D                                 G
No, you can't see what's coming your way, see what's coming        
[Post-Chorus]
A               Bm
Reactors set to overload

        D                        G    A Bm
And the dam of the river's ready to explode

    A             Bm
The act is set to overthrow

           D                        G    Bm
'Cause the dam of the river's ready to explode
