[Verse 1]
      D/F#  A     D
I'm a broke-nose fighter

       D/F#  A     Bm
I'm a loose-lipped liar

Searching for the edge of darkness

           D/F#   A    Bm
But all I get is just tired

And all I got was just cages

                   D
If I'm being real honest

I'm fighting uphill battles

'Cause I've been living in the shadows

        D/F#     A       D
Looking back on all the wreckage

       D/F#   A     Bm
All I see is their faces

         Bm    A        D
How many hearts have I broken?

And tell me, are they still breaking?

Get me out of these cages

There's a window in this cage I'm in

G      D               A              D
I can see what kind of man that I've been

G         D            A        Bm
I'm in a prison for a man gone wrong

But I've found a future, this is not my home
