Bridge:
Db             C     Bbm        Ab
   Don't know how to end this fight
             Db
'Cause if I stop for a second

Or hear that name mentioned
     Bb
I'll break down, can't stop now
       Ab
Can't drop my defences
Db           Cm   Bbm        Ab
    Let this rage cloud my sight
           Db
'Cause if that's what I'm seeing
     Cm                      Bb
