A mind so twisted
                      F G E
With thoughts so unclean.

My heart is racing
                      F G E
All tattered and torn

I stand here naked
                      F G E
As the day I was born.


🤘 Chorus:

Am              F
Over and over I stand
Am                          F
I'm holding the world in my hand

I got to believe

🤘 Verse 1:

E
The sky is falling
                      F G E
On this setting son

Echoes of silence
                      F G E
Ringing loud and long

This isolation
                      F G E
Is the king of pain

A lost horizon
                      F G E
In an ocean of flames


🤘 Chorus 2:

Am                   F
Only the lonely will stand
Am                          F
I'm holding the world in my hand

I got to believe

🤘 Bridge:

Am               G    Am F
I've been here before,
                        Am
But not as I stand here today
               G    Am
I wait for the dawn
         F
Ready to walk into the light
