Em Bb5 F5



Verse 1
 Em
It's the shame, it's the pain, something I can't explain
 Em
It's a noise, it's a voice, and it screams in my brain
 Em                                                    Bb5F5
It's a curse and it hurts, but I just keep going.
 Em
I lean into the storm, it's the way I was born
 Em
'Cause my fear is a flame and it can't be ignored
 Em
Keeping faith that is blind through the tears in my eyes
 Em
But I just keep going

Chorus
 Am
I climb Everest
 Em
Knowing it's life or death
 B
Oh, and my survival is suicidal
 Em      D/F#
This vicious cycle
 G       Em        Am
Knowing I won't ever rest
 Em
Until my dying breath
 B
'Til I have nothing left
 Em
Everest

Instrumental
Am Em B Em D/F# G Em

Am Em B
        


Verse 2
 Em
It's the cure, it's a poison, I don't have a choice in
The silent defiance that I find my voice in
 Em                                           Bb5 F5
'Cause I have decided to just keep going
 Em
It's the rush, it's the feeling that keeps me believing
That I have the strength when I don't have a reason
 Em
To fight is my vice when I don't have the right
To just keep going

Pre-Chorus
 C
I'm counting bodies on the way
 Am
Knowing any one could take my place
 B
Knowing I could give my life for something
And it might all be for nothing

Chorus
 Am
I climb Everest
 Em
Knowing it's life or death
 B
Oh, and my survival is suicidal
 Em     D/F#
This vicious  cycle
 G         Em        Am
Knowing I won't ever rest
 Em
Until my dying breath
 B
'Til I have nothing left
 Em
Oh, Everest
