A                  Db
In the night I sit alone

                 A
Lifeless to the world I know

                Db
Faith loss long ago

                      A
In this graveyard I'm calling home

                Db
Carved into the stone

                  A
A diary of broken bones and

                  Db
Words I should've known

         A                                Db
But this grave's too deep to ever make it up
I'd do anything, anything
A                                   Db
Just to feel like I could reach the ground

                          B
I'd do anything, anything now

                A     B
To spread these wings somehow

               A        B
I scream these words so loud

               A      B
But they never make a sound

Ab
I'm alive

        A                E
But I'm barely breathing now

                  Ab        
So place my heart under the ground

A      E
Lay me down

Ab
I'm alive

        A                E
But I'm barely breathing now

                 Ab
So drag my lungs into the ground

A      E
Lay me down

A                  Db     
In the night I sit alone

                      A           
The stars rain on the world below

          Db                 
Beg me to explode 

     A                               Db     
Cuz dreams I keep are nowhere to be found

                           A             
I'd do anything, anything just to stop

                           Db        
This weight from pressing down

                         B      
I'd do anything anything now

                 A    B         
To spread these wings somehow

                A       B        
I scream these words so loud

               A      B           
But they never make a sound

Ab
I'm alive

        A                E       
But I’m barely breathing now

                  Ab                   
So place my heart under the ground

A      E      
Lay me down

Ab                
I'm alive

        A                B            
But I’m barely breathing now

                   Ab                 
So drag my lungs into the ground

A      E       
Lay me down 

Db                                          
Deep enough so that I'll never feel again

                                       B      
From beneath and in chance in breaking skin

           Db   
I'm giving in
All the promise of smiles and happiness
                                  B      
That's a dream I'm not willing to admit 

              A     
I'm not ready yet

         B       
To face regret 

                 A    
No I'm not ready yet

              E      
I'm not ready yet

Gb        A     
No..

                B  
I'd do anything now 

                A         B     
So spread these wings somehow

               A        B         
I scream these words so loud

               A      B         
But they never make a sound

Ab         
I'm alive

        A                E      
But I'm barely breathing now 

                            Ab        
So place my heart under the ground

A      B      
Lay me down

Ab           
I'm alive

        A                E      
But I'm barely breathing now

                 Ab                
Tread my lungs into the ground

A      E       
Lay me down
