Verse:
Dm C
I'm sinking, I'm sinking
Bmaj7
I don't know what the hell I was thinking
Dm C Dm
My past mistakes are draped in my shame
C
I never thought I'd be in my twenties
B
Hoping desperately to amount to something
Dm
Marking down the days
C Dm
Will these things ever change?
C B
Or will they stay the same?
Chorus:
Dm C
So here I am
Bmaj7 B Dm
With my heart in my hands
F Bmaj7
Searching for the chance
B
To be something more
Dm C
I fear that it's gone
Bmaj7
And I've tried my best to hold on
Dm C Bmaj7
But I'm slipping now
B
With no one to catch me
Dm C Bmaj7

Verse:
C
My heart beats in time
Bmaj7. B
With the sound, with the sound
Dm C Dm
A ticking clock constantly counting down
C
I never dreamed I'd be in my twenties
B
A hole in my chest that left me with nothing
Dm
Old memories up in flames
C Dm
Only myself to blame
Bridge:
Cm B Bmaj7
Can you remember the day?
Gm7
So we told ourselves
That we would never be like them
B Bmaj7
Another spoke on a wheel of bullshit
Gm7
I promised you
That there was way more to life than this
B Bmaj7
I swear I tried so hard
Gm
Can't believe it's all falling apart
B Bmaj7
I fought to get this far
Gm
Only to fail, only to fail
Chorus:
Dm C
So here I am
B Dm
With my heart in my hands
Bmaj7
Searching for the chance
C
To be something more
Dm C
I fear that it's gone
Bmaj7 B
And I've tried my best to hold on
Dm F B
But I'm slipping now
Dm
With no one to catch me
C
I've tried so hard
B
To feel just like I used to
Dm F
I'd rather feel this pain
B
Than nothing at all
Dm C
I've fought so hard
B
To try and break the cycle
Dm F
A failure I'm forced to meet
B F
Each and every day
