Verse 3:
DmDm
See you'll never understand what I feel, what I see
DmDm
What's going through my mind, how it feels being me
DmDm
All the struggles, all the fights, long days, longer nights
DmDm
Trying to search for this happiness lost in the light
DmDm
But it seems that it's all just out of my sight
DmDm
Just out of my reach, can't seem to get right
DmDm
Like I'm cursed with the turbulence placed in my life
DmDm
Can't push or pull it, stuck up in this ball pit
DmDm
Cycle of pain, all the stress in my brain
DmDm
I'm just trying to maintain, 'cause I'm going insane
DmDm
But no matter what I do, the cries go unheard
DmDm
Yet I still believe in you, every breath, every word
DmDm
Every smile, every glance could be another chance
DmDm
That you finally see the love that is me
DmDm
So until that time, I'll follow everyday
DmDm
Every step of the way, and continue to say
