Bb Dm
Was I born just so I could die?
F C
If so, will you be there to meet me at the gate
Bb Dm
And explain the reason why I have to pick a side

Or why there are missiles that reach higher than the sky?
Bb Dm
Did you fire the gun to start the human race
F C
With an understanding that there's nothing but last place...
Bb
In modern life?

Dm
I'm not satisfied

Bb Dm
Oh, take me higher
F C
And guide me to where the sky still has a glow

Oh, let's go higher

And help me to see the world below

As not hell on earth but home

A frame struggling to sustain the weight...
