🤘 Verse 1:
F#5F#5
 I've been burning
A5A5  F#5F#5        A5A5
And dousing the flames
F#5F#5
 I feel the whiplash
A5A5   F#5F#5        A5A5
Of the backlash on my face
F#5F#5
 I melt to sleep at night
 A5A5  F#5F#5         E5E5
But I wake to trip the day
 F#5F#5
Never for you never for me
 A5A5   F#5F#5          A5A5  E5E5
Would I kiss your feet of clay

🤘 Chorus:
Bsus4Bsus4
 I'm still alive and so should I
C majorC
 Soak up the wave of compromise
D MajorD
 A minorAm I the victim of youth
C majorC
 Is this the truth?
        F#5F#5   A5A5  F#5F#5  A5A5
Why don't you tell me
F#5F#5           A5A5  F#5F#5  A5A5

🤘 Verse 2:
F#5F#5
 There's no conscience
A5A5  F#5F#5      A5A5
In charity or shame
F#5F#5
 The voice deceive me
 A5A5  F#5F#5         A5A5  E5E5
But believe me its the same
F#5F#5
 I see the black in white
A5A5    F#5F#5       E5E5
And the color in the gray
 F#5F#5             A5A5
Better for me better for you
      F#5F#5       A5A5  E5E5
Going to bleach it all away
