Asus2      Bsus4       Asus2
  I am the only one to blame for this

Asus2       Bsus4            F#7sus4
  Somehow it all ends up the same

Asus2          Bsus4            C#m7
Soaring on the wings of selfish pride

                         Asus2  Bsus4     F#7sus4
I flew too high and like Icarus I collide

       C#m7            Bsus4           Asus2 Asus2
With a world I try so hard to leave behind

    C#m7         Bsus4            Asus2        Asus2
To rid myself of all but love, to give and die
[Verse 2]
Asus2       Bsus4        Asus2
  To turn away and not become

Asus2      Bsus4               F#7sus4
  Another nail to pierce the skin of one who loves

     Asus2           Bsus4         C#m7
More deeply than the oceans, more abundant than the tears

     Asus2   Bsus4            F#7sus4
Of a world embracing every heartache

C#m7          Bsus4       Asus2 Asus2
Can I be the one to sacrifice

     C#m7              Bsus4               Asus2     Asus2
Or grip the spear and watch the blood and water flow
[Chorus]
    C#m7
(To love you)

E                 Asus2
Take my world a - part
(To need you)
Asus2      C#m7
I am on my knees
(To love you)
E                 Asus2
Take my world a - part
(To need you)
Asus2        C#m7  Bsus4 Asus2 Asus2
Broken on my knees
[Verse 3]
Asus2           Bsus4        Asus2
  All said and done I stand alone

Asus2        Bsus4      F#7sus4
  Amongst remains of a life I should not own

    Asus2      Bsus4   C#m7
It takes all I am to believe

       Asus2      Bsus4     F#7sus4
In the mercy that covers me

C#m7            Bsus4           Asus2 Asus2
Did you really have to die for me

      C#m7                        Bsus4
All I am for all you are, what I need

                       Asus2
And what I believe are worlds apart

Asus2
     And I pray
[Chorus]
    C#m7
(To love you)

E                 Asus2
Take my world a - part
(To need you)
Asus2      C#m7
I am on my knees
(To love you)
E                 Asus2
Take my world a - part
(To need you)
Asus2         C#m7  Bsus4 Asus2 Asus2
Broken on my knees

      C#m7  Bsus4 Asus2 Asus2
On my knees
[Outro]
    C#m
I look beyond the empty cross

    B
Forgetting what my life has cost

   Asus2
I wipe away the crimson stains

    Asus2
And dull the nails that still remain

 C#m
More and more I need you now

  B
I owe you more each passing hour

     Asus2
The battle between grace and pride

   Asus2
I gave up not so long ago

     C#m
So steal my heart and take the pain

     B
And wash the feet and cleanse my pride

Asus2
Take the selfish, take the weak

    Asus2
And all the things I cannot hide

 C#m
Take the beauty, take my tears

    Bsus4
The sin soaked heart and make it yours

 Asus2
Take my world apart

 Asus2
Take it now, take it now

    C#m7                                    C#m7
And serve the ones that I despise      (To love you)

 E                                     E                 Asus2
Speak the words I can't deny           Take my world a - part
(To need you)
     Asus2
And watch the world I used to love

 Asus2                               Asus2      C#m7
Fall to dust and blow away           I am on my knees
(To love you)
   C#m7
I look beyond the empty cross

    E                                  E                 Asus2
Forgetting what my life has cost       Take my world a - part
(To need you)
    Asus2
So wipe away the crimson stains

    Asus2                              Asus2        C#m7
And dull the nails that still remain   Broken on my knees
(To need you)
      C#m7
And steal my heart and take the pain

     Bsus4
And take the selfish, take the weak

    Asus2                                  Asus2
And all the things I cannot hide       (To need you)

Asus2
Take the beauty, take my tears

C#m7                                         C#m7
Take my world apart                    On my knees
(To need you)
Bsus4
Take my world apart

    Asus2                                  Asus2
And I do pray                          (To need you)

    Asus2
And I pray, and I pray

C#m7 Bsus4          Asus2 Asus2              C#m7
     Take my world apart               On my knees

            Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2
worlds apart
