[Intro] x3 Bm D Em G Bm D Em D [Verse 1]
Bm D      G
The disconnect

            Bm
Is welling up

     D     G  D               Bm
And good intentions are not enough

     D         G
Your words are weary

                   Bm
Their hearts are strained

   D          G    D
And idle vows find the deepest pains
[Verse 2]
Bm    D         G
I'm sick I'm tired
Of hollow hope
Bm    D      G    D
Of promises empty

                Bm
Your way with words

 D              G               Bm
They're feeding back inside my head

        D          G         D
Oh the things I could say that won't change a thing
[Pre-Chorus] Bm G D Em
Bm G D    Em
I am not the same
Bm G D Em
G              A
I won't feed on fame
[Chorus]
G               Em
You're one of a thousand voices

Bm                D
In my head that all just sound the same

G               Em
If mine never made a difference

Bm                  D
It won't make the meaning change

G                 Em
You're one of a thousand voices

Bm                D
In my head that all just sound the same

G           Em
If I will make a change

Bm           D
It's by my words and not my name
Bm D Em G Bm D Em D [Verse 3]
Bm    D          G
I'm tired I'm sick

          Bm
Of misfit beggars

D         G     D
With able tongues and easy outs

Bm     D      G                        Bm
I hear you clearer than you hear yourself

D         G       D
Bite down on your blindness and spit it out
[Pre-Chorus] Bm G D Em
Bm G D    Em
I am not the same
Bm G D Em
G              A
I won't feed on fame
[Chorus]
G               Em
You're one of a thousand voices

Bm                D
In my head that all just sound the same

G               Em
If mine never made a difference

Bm                  D
It won't make the meaning change

G                 Em
You're one of a thousand voices

Bm                D
In my head that all just sound the same

G           Em
If I will make a change

Bm           D
It's by my words and not my name
Bm D G Em [Bridge]
Bm
I won't sink into the sea of grey

D
A violence of color

G
I won't melt into the choir of angels

Em
I'll step up and scream it
I am dissonant [Breakdown]
Bm G Em
A violence of color
Bm G Em [Chorus]
G               Em
You're one of a thousand voices

Bm                D
In my head that all just sound the same

G               Em
If mine never made a difference

Bm                  D
It won't make the meaning change

G                 Em
You're one of a thousand voices

Bm                D
In my head that all just sound the same

G           Em
If I will make a change

Bm           D
It's by my words and not my name
