I just want to leave this horrid place the way I came

F           Am
And I'll be an island

And the shore were I stand
                E
Can't be reached by more than waves
         F
I told my sharks
           Am
That I need an island

For I know the violence

And I'll make the same mistakes
Again

Only want to breathe again, be free and let it end

I told my sharks
           Am
That I need an island

Then I swear I'll drift away
I cross my heart
