[Verse 1
Em D Em You took me to the restaurant where we first met Em D Em You knocked a future shock crowbar upside my head Em D G A Em I got caught with the stop of the tick-tock, tick-tock clock D Em When you told me what you knew
[Pre-Chorus]
Em D Lost in the moment G A Em The day that the music stopped D Em And I do remember you
[Chorus]
C D Drawing patterns with a cork on the tablecloth G D Em Promising volcanic change of plot C D Where will this lead us? I'm scared of the storm Em D Em The outsiders are gathering, a new day is born
[Verse 2]
Em D Em I tried to tell you I am not afraid Em D Em You looked up and saw it all across my face Em D Em So am I with you or am I against? Em D Em I don't think it's that easy - we're lost in regret Em D Now I'm trying to remember G A Em The feeling when the music stopped D Em When you told me what you knew
[Pre-Chorus]
Em D Lost in the moment G A Em The day that the music stopped D Em And I do remember you
[Chorus]
C D Drawing patterns with a cork on the tablecloth G D Em Promising volcanic change of plot C D Where will this lead us? I'm scared of the storm Em D Em The outsiders are gathering, a new day is born
[Chorus]
C D Drawing patterns with a cork on the tablecloth G D Em Promising volcanic change of plot C D Where will this lead us? I'm scared of the storm Em D Em The outsiders are gathering, a new day is born Em D Em The outsiders are gathering, a new day is born Em D Em N.C. The outsiders are gathering

[Rap]
Em Bm A man walks away when every muscle says to stay G How many yesterdays - they each weigh heavy Em Bm Who says what changes may come? G Who says what we call home? Em Bm I know you see right through me, my luminescence fades G The dusk provides an antidote, I am not afraid Em Bm I've been a million times in my mind G This is really just a technicality, frailty, reality Em Bm Uh, it's time to breathe, time to believe G Let it go and run towards the sea Em Bm They don't teach that, they don't know what you mean G They don't understand, they don't know what you mean Em Bm They don't get it, I wanna scream G I wanna breathe again, I wanna dream Em Bm I wanna float a quote from Martin Luther King G Em Bm I am not afraid, I am not afraid, I am not afraid G Em Bm I am not afraid, I am not afraid, I am not afraid
