Verse 1: Played in 4/4
A minorAm
All along I was scared to breathe
FF E MajorE DmDm
So afraid that the world was gonna leave me behind
In the dark, I refused to see
FF
That I was barely alive
A minorAm
It's such a bitter pill to swallow
FF E MajorE DmDm
But I learned to call it "reality"
DmDm DmDm
I didn't wanna wake up, I didn't wanna wake up
DmDm
I didn't wanna wake up and miss the misery
Verse 2:
A minorAm
All along I refused to believe
FF E MajorE
Paranoid that my fear already left me to die
DmDm
In the end, when I stopped, I could see
FF E MajorE
That I was feeding the lie
A minorAm
Caught in between another time and place
FF E MajorE
When no one cared to know my name
DmDm
Feels like it's never enough
DmDm
When is it ever enough?

Running from the worst in me
